If Ellis wanted to avenge their loss from the last time they played Oakley, they should've done a better job of containing Carsen Beal. The Oakley Plainsmen managed a 56-52 win over the Ellis Railroaders on Friday thanks to Beal, who posted 14 points in addition to eight rebounds and six assists. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in points.
Mason Jackson was another key player, putting up six points and 12 boards. He is on a roll when it comes to rebounds, as he's now pulled down ten or more in each of the last three games he's played.
Ellis' loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Jaren Frickey, who went 5-for-11 to rack up 17 points, and Caleb Noble-Heit, who went 5-for-9 on his way to 11 points and six boards. The team also got some help courtesy of Aiden Aschenbrenner, who had four points along with five assists and five rebounds.
Oakley's victory bumped their record up to 8-11. As for Ellis, their defeat dropped their record down to 8-10.
Coming up, Oakley will head out to challenge Thomas More Prep-Marian at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. As for Ellis, they will host Hoxie at 7:00 p.m. on Monday. Hoxie knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 55 points or more in their past three matches -- so hopefully Ellis likes a good challenge.
