Another trip to Portland, another championship.
Junior Ty-Shon Alexander scored 24 points and senior forward Braxton Key added 23 as the No. 5 Oak Hill Warriors (Va.) turned in a strong second-half performance en route to a 82-66 win over No. 6 DeMatha (MD) in the Les Schwab Invitational Championship tilt.
The win marks the 6th LSI Invitational title for Head Coach Steve Smith, fresh off picking up career win No. 1,000 on Monday night over West Linn. The Warriors gained some separation after a back-and-forth first half, riding the hot shooting hands of Alexander (9-13 FG) and Key (10-13 FG).
For the game, Oak Hill shot a blistering 58 percent from the floor while dishing out 20 assists, displaying why they are one of the most proficient offenses in the country.
Junior guards Matt Coleman (12 points, 5 assists, 3 steals) and Lindell Wigginton (15 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists) were named to the LSI All-Tournament team, joining DeMatha star Markelle Fultz, who capped off a sensational tournament by delivering 20 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists vs. Oak Hill.
