Absolutely great night to be a HS basketball fan. Here are some of the scores from around the city:

West High @ Withrow pictures

• 

  Aaron Thomas runs this city until
  someone else proves otherwise.

  Withrow 68 West High 66: In the best game of this young season, both teams traded blows the entire fourth quarter. Darrell Bullock hit a floater to tie the game with less then twenty seconds, but Withrow's Aaron Thomas proved that he is the man in this city with a strong drive and two made free throws with only 5 seconds left to win it. The reason Withrow won was the second half play of Carl Porter; Carl was everywhere getting buckets, rebounds, blocks, diving on the floor, and making the crowd go crazy with two dunks. West High is for real though, although they still have doubters this team is one to watch as the season continues. Thomas finished with 22 for Withrow, Carl Porter had 19, and Kevin Jones scored 15. West High was led offensively by four guys who all had double figures. Keevin Tyus had another big game with 20, Bubba Hill hit shots all night and had 17, Darrell Bullock kept West High alive time after time and scored 16, and JaMarcus Crawford added 12 for the Mustangs.
