The Yosemite Badgers boys basketball team hasn't solved its problem of starting slow, and that didn't change last Friday night, needing a 19-2 run in the third quarter to catch and overtake the Chowchilla Redskins in a 54-48 North Sequoia League thriller.
The Badgers (6-10, 1-2 NSL) trailed by seven with 25-18 at the intermission, scoring just six points in the second quarter. Yosemite's defense, led by junior post Caleb Cederblom who had 11 rebounds and a blocked shot, held the Redskins (5-10, 1-3 NSL) to a field goal in the third quarter.
The Badgers offense came to life in the second half, scoring 19 points in the third. Senior forward Detri Dunn finished with 16 points and junior guard Cody Essary scored eight points, including two 3-point baskets.
