It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but The Carmel School had no problem doing just that on Wednesday. They enjoyed a cozy 59-45 win over the New Covenant Gryphons. That's two games straight that the Wildcats have won by exactly 14 points.
Despite the loss, New Covenant still got an impressive performance from Tristan Isenhour, who went 9-for-17 en route to 22 points and eight rebounds. That's the most points Isenhour has posted since back in December of 2024. Another player making a difference was Rusty Hooks, who earned six points and six boards.
The Carmel School has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 18-10 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 77.0 points over those games. The defeat snapped New Covenant's winning streak at three games and leaves them with a 18-9 record.
Looking ahead, The Carmel School will square off against St. Michael the Archangel at 12:00 p.m. on Friday. The Carmel School knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past 28 games -- so hopefully St. Michael the Archangel likes a good challenge. New Covenant does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
