The Camelback Spartans's game last Thursday was a tough loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Wednesday. They walked away with a 56-47 win over Skyline. Given Camelback's advantage in MaxPreps' Arizona basketball rankings (they are ranked 135th, while Skyline is ranked 273rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Camelback's victory was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Kemahn Knight, who scored 20 points. The team also got some help courtesy of Aken Logan, who scored 18 points along with five assists.
Camelback pushed their record up to 7-3 with that victory, which was their third straight on the road. Those victories were due in large part to their offensive dominance across that stretch, as they averaged 59.0 points per game.
