Magna • It looked as though Cyprus and Hillcrest were preparing for a fourth-quarter battle after three physical, hard-fought periods Tuesday night.
But a light went on for the home team in the final eight minutes as the Pirates connected on six 3-pointers on their way to a 34-point quarter and an impressive 77-61 victory.
“We have had games like that,” Pirates coach Tre Smith said. “We have some guys who can spread the floor. That was a big quarter for us and a big game.”
Alex Foster led the barrage of 3-pointers. He had Cyprus’ ancient gym rocking.
