10-4A BOYS BASKETBALL: Wranglers, Trojans remain tied for first place
By DEVIN HASSON, dhasson@starlocalnews.com
Every slate of games seems to bring about multiple changes in the congested 10-4A standings and Friday was no different.
When the dust settled, West Mesquite and Carrollton Newman Smith remained ahead of the field.
The Wranglers, with their 68-50 victory over Poteet, and the Trojans, with a 84-59 stomping of Forney, are both 4-1, giving them a narrow one-game lead over the Pirates, Highland Park and North Forney.
Poteet had four players in double figures, with Nathaniel Gaines scoring 16 points, Raffaele Gaines tallying 11 and Verkedric Vaughns and Chris Murphy each adding 10.
The Pirates have dropped back-to-back district games and if they are to break that streak, they will need to do it against district co-leader Carrollton Newman Smith on Tuesday.
West Mesquite will try to maintain its spot atop the standings when it takes on a dangerous Carrollton Creekview team that at 2-3, is lurking just a game out of playoff contention.
