Going into the fourth quarter against Division IV opponent Sierra High, head coach Josh Justin told his team to continue playing with the same intensity they had been for the last three quarters. In an attempt to pick up their won tempo, the Chieftains executed a full-court press.

But the Eagles were undaunted by the attack and broke through the Sierra defense with smart ball movement. Senior Ryan Neufeld, left, was an inside threat pulling down 15 rebounds and scoring 8 points in the fourth (18 overall) as the Division V Eagles improved to 10-1 with an 87-74 win over Sierra, Jan. 3.
