With little momentum in its perimeter shooting, El Reno High School’s boys basketball team went old school in the fourth quarter in a rivalry game with Piedmont.

The Indians took only two shots outside of the paint over the final eight minutes, resulting in a 19-8 run, as El Reno broke a 37-all tie to open the frame and rolled to a 56-45 win over the unranked Wildcats.

“We thought we were bigger and more athletic than they were in the paint, so that was the plan for the ball. We just had to get it to the middle of the court,” said El Reno senior post player Kolton Hunt.
