D’Hanis rolls Charlotte

 

     The D’Hanis Cowboys bounced back from their first loss of the season – a 58-50 home setback to Sabinal last Tuesday, Nov. 25 – with a 60-30 home win over Charlotte on Tuesday evening, Dec. 2.

     The Cowboys will take their annual spot in the SWTX Tournament in Uvalde starting Thursday, Dec. 4, where the same eight teams have been battling it out for decades. The Cowboys will open play against Sabinal today at 10 a.m.

     Jackson Cross and Kase Braden were in double figures for D’Hanis (3-1) in the win over Charlotte with 21 and 16 points. Evan Craft tossed in another nine.

     D’Hanis was in control from the start, leading 19-2 after one period, and 35-10 at the break.

     After the three-day tournament in Uvalde, the Cowboys will host Natalia on Tuesday, Dec. 9, in a 6:15 p.m. game at the Roy Kile Gymnasium.

     Next weekend, Dec. 11-13, D’Hanis will compete in the Tilden Classic at McMullen County High School. Both the Cowboys and Cowgirls will participate.

     In the Cowboys’ pool at Tilden are Freer and George West. There are four three-team pools. After pool play, teams will be placed into Gold, Silver and Bronze brackets. In the eight-team girls’ tourney, the Cowgirls will be in a pool with Danbury, San Isidro and Stockdale. Play will then move to Gold and Silver brackets.
