Woodland junior Garret Reynolds averaged 25 points in three Stoddard County Conference Tournament games, helping the sixth-seeded Cardinals to a pair of upsets and into the championship contest.
The 5-foot-10 guard scored the winning basket and 28 points in a 49-48 upset of No. 3 Bloomfield in the first round. He went 12 of 12 from the free-throw line in the game. He then scored 27 points in the Cardinals' 67-57 surprise of No. 2 Advance in the semifinals.
Top-seeded Bernie concentrated heavily on Reynolds in the title game, but he still managed 20 points in a 59-45 loss to the Mules.
Reynolds was named to the all-tournament team, which he also made at the Woodland Tournament earlier this season. He averages about 20 points and eight rebounds per game this season.
