Christian Brothers had to skate by with only a two-point margin when they last took the court, which might have inspired the 27-point drubbing they dealt Ponderosa on Tuesday. The Christian Brothers Falcons breezed by the Ponderosa Bruins to the tune of 70-43. Given the Falcons' advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 90th, while the Bruins are ranked 786th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Christian Brothers had a senior duo take command as Stephan Hewitt went 7 for 13 on his way to 16 points and six rebounds and Daniel Powers posted seven points along with six assists and four steals. Hewitt's evening made it three games in a row in which he has scored at least ten points. Aaron Grijnsztein was another key player, putting up nine points.
