An X factor this season for Skyhawk Basketball has been Dante Scott. The junior forward plays with high energy and athleticism and really excels as a rim runner in transition. He got buckets inside and fight hard on the boards with 9 points and 6 rebounds.

Final: Skyhawk Basketball 57, Jesuit Crusaders 50 Kaden Groenig and Carter Fortune led the Skyhawks with 15 points each. Alonzo Hoff added 9. Isaiah Crane led the Crusaders with 14 points. Henry Smith added 12.

We only got a relatively short glimpse of him in JV action but we could tell right away that Nikko Kalish is legit. The Skyhawk Basketball freshman has a great feel for the game, makes good decisions with the basketball, and has a good motor on D. Excited to watch his progress.
