It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but McClave had no problem doing just that on Saturday. Everything went their way against the De Beque Dragons as they made off with a 65-43 victory. The Cardinals have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 16 matches by 22 points or more this season.
McClave found their leader in sophomore Tuff Kelley, who dropped a double-double with 21 points and 11 boards. Kelley is also on a roll when it comes to blocks, as he's now posted two or more in each of the last 11 games he's played. Another player making a difference was Mason Barr, who posted 15 points.
McClave smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 14 offensive boards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least 14 offensive rebounds in four consecutive games.
McClave has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 12 of their last 13 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 22-3 record this season. De Beque's loss dropped their record down to 15-9.
Coming up, McClave will challenge Elbert on Thursday. One thing working in McClave's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last four matches. De Beque does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
