On Monday, Elkmont traveled to Westminister and won 51- 41. After a poor first half, the Red Devils came on strong in the second half for the win. Daniel Logan led Elkmont with 16 points. On Thursday, the Red Devils went to Athens Bible School and won 64 - 44. Elkmont played well and the bench played the fourth quarter. The Red Devils had four players in double figures - Hayden Huseth and Daniel Logan with 13 points each and Cole Glass and Skyler Gant, both added 10 points. Rhett Bailey came off the bench to add 8 points. On Friday night, it was Senior Night for the five seniors; Cole Glass, Daniel Logan, Skyler Gant, Hayden Huseth and Drew Weaver. After honoring the seniors, the fans were treated to a well played basketball game with Elkmont beating New Hope, 60 - 50. Cole Glass and Daniel Logan had 20 points each and Logan added 11 rebounds. Hayden Huseth had 11 points and Skyler Gant had 8 assists. Elkmont's record now sits at 17 -9.
OBSERVATIONS:
Elkmont is playing well going into the last regular season game on Monday against Ardmore. The Red Devils host the Area Tournament on Friday and it is crucial that they win the tournament and host the sub-state game. Cole Glass and Daniel Logan are playing their best basketball of the year. Hayden Huseth has regained his shooting touch and Skyler Gant is running the team, setting up his team-mates with opportunities to score and playing great defense.
PREDICTION:
The Dust Devil predicts that Elkmont bests Ardmore on Monday and prevails in the Area Tournament. However, count on the championship game being a barn burner against West Morgan.
