Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Munday to victory, but perhaps none more so than Mance Phillips, who went 6-for-12 on his way to 14 points.

Caisen Lee was another key player, going 6-for-10 en route to 16 points.
Northside dropped their record down to 7-18 with the loss, which was their fourth straight on the road. As for Munday, they are on a roll lately: they've won 19 of their last 21 games, which provided a nice bump to their 26-5 record this season.
