Dragons Advance to Finals to Face Prescott with 16-Point Win Over Panthers Friday Night
Genoa- Genoa Central is one step closer to one of their goals for the season, as they knocked off the 1-seed Panthers on Friday night 61-45 with smothering defense. After limiting Ashdown to just 40 points on earlier this week, the Dragons held Fouke to just 45 points en route to a semifinal win. 

Four of the Dragons players were in double-figures last night, as Jaxson Muhl led the Genoa Central offense with 17 points. Muhl also grabbed 8 rebounds and had 3 blocks. Brayden Cobb torched the nets for 15 points, with Curry-like shooting numbers going 5/6 from 3pt range. Braxton Robertson continues to fill up the stat sheet, as he scored 15 points, dished out 4 assists, had 3 rebounds, and 3 steals. Peyton Hicks is a walking double-double, as he scored 13 points and brought down 15 rebounds, and added 5 blocks. Brody Helms scored 4 points and had 4 assists. 

With the win, the Dragons will play the Curley Wolves on Saturday night in the Finals starting at 6:45. This should be a great matchup as both teams are playing well at the right time of the season.
