Make room for a trophy in the Mead case

STATE 4A BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

A sound game plan and some superb guard play combined to lift Mead into the hardware round Saturday, as the Panthers hammered overrated Roosevelt, 71-56, Friday.

You can read how the Panthers did it in this story.

The Panthers played 21 minutes of near-perfect basketball, then held on despite some ill-advised offensive and defensive possessions. The star? It was freshman Jazmine Redmon, who had 21 points, seven rebounds, three assists and just three turnovers.

Now Mead will bring home a trophy no matter what, but fourth place seems likely against either Snohomish or Bothell.
