Skyline Wins at Highland!!!!

The Skyline faithful made the trip to Pocatello in force to cheer on the boys basketball team to victory against Highland. Skyline led most of the game and came out on top in a hard fought contest. The Grizz will travel to Twin Falls Tuesday for a State Tournament play-in game. The last time Skyline won at Highland was in 1989, when the Grizz won by a point.

Check out the last few seconds of the game:

Here is the recap from the Post Register:

"At Pocatello, Skyline earned its first win at Highland since 1989, knocking off the Rams 57-54 in a 5A District 4-5-6 loser-out game.

"I'm so proud of these boys," Skyline coach Ty Shippen said. "We've had some close games at Highland over the years, but this group of boys was able to get it done."

Robert Edwards led the Grizzlies with 25 points. Adrian Johnson added eight points, Braxton Facer scored seven and recent junior varsity call-up JC Scrogum added five.

Shippen also singled out the defensive play of junior guard Michael Berger.

Taysom Hill scored 25 points to pace the Rams. Check out the Post Register sports blog at: http://www.postregister.com/blogs/sports/
