No. 1 George Washington Just Punched Their Ticket to the Class AAAA Title Game and It Wasn't Even Close
No. 1 George Washington is headed to the Class AAAA state championship after absolutely dismantling No. 4 Washington 71-57 on Friday night. The Patriots never trailed for a single second and at one point had built a commanding 21-point lead. This team is locked in, and they're ready for whoever comes out of the other semifinal.
GW Put on a Clinic From Start to Finish
George Washington controlled this game from the opening tip. After the first quarter, they were already up 17-11, and by halftime, they'd extended that to 32-24. But the real dagger came in the second half of the third quarter when GW went on a devastating 14-2 run that completely broke things open. Washington tried to chip away in the fourth quarter, but it was too little, too late. The final margin told the story: GW won by 14.
Noah Lewis Put On a Show
Noah Lewis was the engine that drove GW's dominant performance, dropping 32 points and pulling down 14 rebounds for a double-double that had to leave Washington's defense absolutely frustrated. Chuck Kelley chipped in 14 points, and Dominic Sprouse added 10 more. For Washington, Jasiah King led the charge with 16 points and Kristopher Doleman had 12, but it simply wasn't enough to slow down a No. 1 seed firing on all cylinders.
Next Up: The Big One
George Washington will wait for the winner of the other semifinal between No. 2 Morgantown and No. 3 Spring Mills. The Class AAAA state championship game tips off at approximately 7:30 p.m. on Saturday at the Charleston Coliseum. One win away from the title. This is what they've been building toward all season.
