Cliff had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They walked away with a 60-49 victory over the Gateway Christian Warriors on Saturday. The high-flying offensive performance was a huge turnaround for the Cowboys/Cowgirls considering their nine-point performance the game before.
Several Warriors players turned in solid performances despite ultimately coming up short. Perhaps the best among those players was Grady Munson, who shot 41% from the field en route to 19 points and five rebounds. Munson is also on a roll when it comes to steals, as he's now grabbed two or more in each of the last seven games he's played. Another player making a difference was Zack McCracken, who went 6-for-15 on his way to 16 points and seven boards.
Cliff has been performing well recently as they've won 11 of their last 13 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 23-6 record this season. This is the second loss in a row for Gateway Christian and nudges their season record down to 21-9.
Coming up, Cliff will face off against Logan at 4:45 p.m. on Wednesday. One thing working in Logan's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last nine contests. Gateway Christian does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
