Marion had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. Everything went their way against the Richland County Tigers on Wednesday as the Marion Wildcats made off with a 61-36 victory. The Wildcats have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 12 matchups by 20 points or more this season.
Marion's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Kaden Rogowski led the charge by going 8-for-14 en route to 19 points and three steals. Another player making a difference was Cameron Curry, who went 7-for-11 to rack up 15 points and six rebounds.
