Monday First Round Games

Cajon 73, Silverado 65-- Cajon trailed 2-0 but never again in a 73-65 victory Monday over Silverado at San Bernardino San Gorgonio High. Though it was never a blowout, the Cowboys held a comfortable lead -- eight to 12 points -- for most of the game. The Cowboys (10-1) thwarted the Hawks' trademark, full-court press with solid ball-handling and superior quickness from its guards. Hence, Silverado (9-2) wasn't able to score the easy transition baskets it usually relies on. Once Cajon broke the traps, it employed its height advantage to score easy baskets in the post on offense. On defense, it denied Silverado second shots. Cajon outrebounded Silverado 39-22. Roby scored a game-high 29 points, including four three-pointers, to pace the Cowboys. Silverado's Jeremiah Phillips scored the first basket of the fourth quarter to pull the Hawks within 51-46, but Roby scored six consecutive points and Cajon used an 8-0 run to extend the lead to 59-46.
