The Glenbrook Apaches took control of their destiny in district play with a 58-35 win over River Oaks Tuesday night. The Apaches can win district by winning their last two district games.
Tuesday night, Glenbrook jumped out early and rolled to the win over a team that had beaten them the last time they played.
“River Oaks may have been a little off last night, but we were able to capitalize on that,” Glenbrook head coach Chris Kourvelas said. “The last time we played, they were on and we were off, this time that was reversed. But that’s how the game is played sometimes.”
Glenbrook led 14-8 after the first quarter and then took a 26-16 lead into the locker room at the half. The Apaches out-scored the Mustangs 22-16 in the third and 10-3 in the fourth to take the win.
“We played a very good team tonight, Kourvelas said. “They made a few runs on us, but we kept pushing them back in the water. I feel like if you can push a team back in the water like that, it’s a good quality for your team to have.”
Colton Spurlock led the Apaches, as he recorded a double-double. Spurlock scored 13 points, pulled down 11 rebounds and added eight assists. Blake Branch and Thomas Beam each scored 11 points and DeAngelo McDonald grabbed 10 rebounds.
“Winning is tough in our district,” Kourvelas said. “We’ve got two more district games and we just have to take care of business.”

In order for GB to win the district outright, they would have to win their final two district games and RO would have to lose one of their last two district games. If both teams win out, then the two will meet up at a neutral site and play for a third time to determine the first and second place in the district.
From FAN,
Is the above post by Anonymous correct? Or an opinion/suggestion?

The above post is indeed a fact. RO destroyed GB at home and GB destroyed RO at GB. If both teams win out then they will be tied for first place with one loss a piece. A tie breaker game will be played between the two to determine the champ.

Surely there is a tiebreaker in this district. If not, the MAIS has a tiebreaker for each district to follow.
