Genoa Central Starts Conference 1-0 with Win Over Smackover
Genoa- The Dragons (7-3, 1-0) started off conference play on the right note Tuesday night with a big 61-49 win over Smackover. The defense was really good, holding the Buckaroos to under 50 points. 

Genoa Central is coming off a busy weekend at the Redwater Tournament, where they competed very well. 

Senior Peyton Hicks posted his first triple-double of the year on Tuesday, as he scored 17 points, grabbed 10 boards, and blocked 10 shots. Hicks is an elite defender at the rim and his block and steals stats speak for themselves, as he added 4 more steals in this game too. 

Colten Gideon torched the nets for a team-highi 23 points. Jackson Thornberry poured in 13 points and had 3 rebounds. Austin Pell had 4 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 assists. 

The Dragons will look to continue their hot start to the season next Thursday as they host Spring Hill in a non-conference game.
