Your Wakeland Wolverines got their second District win in a row with a thrilling victory this past Friday night over the Titans of Centennial by a score of 52-45. The Titans showed no mercy on the Wolverines as they jumped out to 18-10 lead by the end of the first quarter. It didn't get any better for Wakeland as the Titans extended their lead to double digits by half. However, even though the Wolverines were struggling against Centennial's matchup zone, Zol Singleton hit a couple of "3's" that helped spark the Wakeland offense in the 3rd quarter. Wakeland's defensive pressure took over in the fourth, which helped the Wolverines pull away in the end. Head Coach Brent Benningfield stated after the game, "its a huge win for us on the road because nothing is guaranteed in this District..., looks like Santa brought us an early Christmas gift!" Cameron Walker led the Wolverines with 17 points and 13 rebounds, which is his sixth double-double of the season. Zol Singleton had 15 points, 3 assists, and 2 blocks. Sean Watkins handed out 5 assists while Noah Westerfield grabbed 9 boards. The wins puts Wakeland's overall record at 16-1 with a 2-0 start in District play. The Wolverines will be off the next few days for the Holiday break and then will be back in action on Saturday, Dec. 29th at Forth Worth Paschal. Varsity will tip-off at 12:30pm. Go orange and blue!
