The team also got some help courtesy of Carter Colombe, who scored five points along with eight assists and five rebounds.
He wasn't the only one working in the assists department: Ada were working as a unit and finished the game with 18 assists. That's the most assists they've managed all season.
Meanwhile, Tuttle's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Friday after their third straight defeat. They were beaten by Weatherford 68-35. While losing is never fun, Tuttle can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Oklahoma basketball rankings (they are ranked 94th, while the Eagles are ranked 20th).
Ada's record is now 14-6. As for Tuttle, they have not been sharp recently as the team's lost four of their last five matchups, which put a noticeable dent in their 12-9 record this season.
