Summit boys win twice
The Summit Patriots picked up a pair of wins this past week, holding on to win at Nezperce 53-52 in a league game Tuesday, Jan. 28, and then winning easily over Meadows Valley 65-23 Thursday, Jan. 30, at Cottonwood.
At Nezperce
In the league game at Nezperce it looked for a bit like Summit was going to replay their loss at Deary by taking a big lead only to give it up at the end. This one had a happier ending for the Patriots and all but cinched the #2 seed at district, especially with Nezperce losing to Logos later in the week.Josh Lustig shoots inside the lane against Nezperce.
Nezperce scored first in the game with a pair of free throws. Matthew Schwartz picked up his apparent 2nd foul on the play and went to the bench but apparently that foul was credited instead to Michael Waters.
Schwartz sat out the rest of the quarter anyway. 
Josh Lustig scored Summit’s first point and Waters scored the next 5 as Summit took a 6-2 lead. 2 more points by Waters made it 8-4 at the end of the quarter.
Summit took control in the second quarter after Nezperce had cut the lead to 8-6. Summit then went on a 13-0 run to take a 21-6 lead. Waters and Schwartz each scored 4 points in that run with defensive rebounds and steals leading to Summit points. Tyler Krogh came off the bench to add 3 points.
Nezperce broke the run with a pair of 3-pointers by Casey Beauchamp but Summit was able to take a 27-17 lead into the halftime break.
A 7-0 run by Summit in the third quarter gave Summit their largest lead at 18 points, 38-20, with 4:05 left in the period.
Nezperce came right back with a 0-10 run of their own that saw Kristian Carpenter hit a pair of 3’s.
A lay-in by Lustig broke the run and Patrick Chmelik scored to put the lead back at 12, 42-30. Nezperce scored the final 4 points of the quarter to pull within 8 at 42-34.
Nezperce cut the lead down to 5 at 46-41 on a 3 by Carpenter but a basket each by Dean Stubbers and Lustig plus a 3 by Schwartz put Summit back on top by 12, 53-41, with 4:16 left.
Those were the last points Summit would score though as they went to a trying to run clock on offense instead of score and lost all their momentum. Nezperce meanwhile put on a furious rally with three 3-pointers plus a pair of free throws that cut the lead to 53-52 with 25 seconds left. 
After Carpenter’s fourth 3 of the half cut the lead to 1, Summit threw the ball away on the inbounds pass.
Despite trailing by 1, Nezperce decided to run the clock down for a do or die shot. Chmelik blocked a shot with about 4 seconds left and Nezperce had 2 more wild tosses at the hoop before time ran out.
Waters wound up as the leading scorer with 17 points with Lustig right behind with 16. Schwartz scored 11 with Chmelik scoring 4, Krogh 3 and Dean Stubbers 2.
Nezperce had the rebounding edge at 35-40. Summit was led by Waters with 10 and Lustig with 9.
Waters had 4 steals and Lustig had 3 assists.
Summit was 23 for 47 from the field, 49%, and 6 for 14 at the line, 43%. Nezperce was 16 for 62 from the field, 26%, and 12 for 15 at the line, 80%.
