BURLINGTON, WA – A 28-point night from the free throw line combined with balanced scoring featuring four Tigers in double figures keyed a fourth quarter comeback in Burlington-Edison’s 68-60 win over Meridian in a Northwest Conference boys’ high school basketball game that was webcast live here at WinNW.com.
After building a 16-5 first quarter lead, the Tigers were outscored 39-27 the next two quarters and trailed 44-43 entering the final eight minutes. With Meridian’s Chase Heslep, Patrick Carlson and Blake Briones all fouling out, Burlington-Edison (12-4, 5-4 NWC) clinched the win from the foul line, outscoring the Trojans 25-16 in the final period while finishing with a 28-5 advantage from the free throw line.
Aaron Watts led the Tigers with a game high 19 points, Nathan Haddock scored 12, while Dalton Schwetz and Taylor Nelson added 11 points each.
