Boyd boys nab big home win
The Broncos went to work early against the Hawks of Richard Hardy Memorial Tuesday night as they picked up a 78-52 win at home.
In the first period Kenneth King went to work on the inside and Jay Medley hit from the outside to give the Broncos 19 points in the first period. The Hawks couldn’t handle Boyd’s defense and managed only six points by the end of the period.
In the second, defense by Boyd once again created many problems for RHMS. The Hawks had trouble with ball handling and never put any offense together. Boyd on the other hand scored the first 11 points of the period before RHMS marked the scorebook. RHMS hit six points in a row with 2:45 left in the period but Boyd’s James Dunlap closed out the half with a two as the Broncos led 32-14 at the half.
Sam and Jay Medley led the Broncos in the third with production on defense and offense. The Hawks’ offense came from the foul line as they hit for 10 of their 16 points in the period. Boyd played a solid man-to-man defense but their offense totaled 18 points to give the Broncos a 50-32 lead by the end of the third.
In the final period Boyd’s Clint Patterson struck for eight of his 14 points in the game as the Broncos continued to dominate the offensive glass. Boyd used its bench for most of the fourth, but the Broncos still had plenty of firepower as they totaled 28 points in the period for the 26-point win.
For Boyd, King, Jay Medley and Patterson had 14 points each. Sam Medley scored 12 points, Dustin Curtis had seven and Casey Hertwig six points. James Dunlap and Dillon Childers had four each, Mathew Hancock had two and John Watson added one point.
