Missourian prep hoops roundup, Feb. 21: Cape Central boys push past Park Hills Central

Cape Central stayed undefeated against in-state competition on Tuesday night by taking down Park Hills Central (22-3) by a final score of 80-71.

With the Rebels hanging within three points of the Tigers at the end of the third quarter, the Tigers let loose with a 28-point outburst in the fourth quarter to put away Park Hills Central and improve to 24-1 on the season.

Park Hills Central received a combined 59 points from Jobe Bryant (33) and Mason Williams (26), pacing the Tigers for most of the game. A big-time, 32-point performance from veteran center Cameron Williams kept the Tigers in key position to win the game, however, scoring 11 of his 32 in the fourth quarter alone.
