Making good on a promise he made Tuesday after the Shady Spring game that Webster would finish the regular season on a winning note, senior guard Brett Morris poured in 38 points Thursday evening to lead the host Highlanders to an easy win over the Midland Trail Patriots 94 to 62.
With the win, Webster finished the regular season with a 17 win, 3 loss record. They will host a sectional playoff game on Tuesday, February 26, 2013 at 7:00 p.m. The game was originally scheduled for Wednesday but has been moved up to Tuesday. The Highlanders will face the winner of the Ravenswood - Braxton County game that will be played in Ravenswood on Monday.
Against Midland Trail, the Highlanders never trailed in the game. Webster led 21 to 14 at the end of the first quarter and by 55 to 32 at halftime. Morris scored 28 of his 38 points in the first half. The large Senior Night crowd was more than satisfied with the rout, including Brett's arguably best dunk of the season that he made shortly before halftime.
The Highlanders coasted the remainder of the game, leading 67 to 51 at the end of the third quarter. Webster outscored the Patriots 27 to 11 in the fourth quarter to punctuate their 94 to 62 win.
Along with his 38 points, Morris collected 12 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 blocked shots, and 3 steals.
Senior Tyler Anderson wanted to hear public address announcer Jonas Knotts say "Tyler Anderson for three!" when Tyler was introduced during the pre-game Senior Night festivities. Tyler got his wish granted as he drained 3 three point shots, plus a 2 point layup for good measure, finishing with 11 points and 1 rebound.
Senior Hunter Given had 12 points, 11 rebounds, and 1 blocked shot. Freshman Robbie Cogar was the fourth Highlander to score double figures. Cogar finished with 10 points, 4 assists, 2 steals, and 2 rebounds.
