On Saturday morning, the Marianapolis Golden Knights faced off against Beaver Country Day in the semifinals of the Rivers Holiday Tournament. From the opening tip, this game was aggressive and competitive.

In the early going, both teams were able to get pretty decent looks, and were knocking them down at a good clip. Tyler Burton had a couple of threes, and senior captain Stephon Baxter was strong on both sides of the ball, notching 7 first-half points on his way to 18 in the contest. Post-grad guard Justin Cort brought fantastic energy off the bench with an early assist and some tremendous on-ball defense. The two teams were tied going into the break, 30-30.

In the second half, Baxter and Burton continued their strong shooting performance. The two combined for 51 points in the game, showcasing their experience and talent. A few late three-pointers and free-throws helped the Knights to put away BCD, 62-58.

With the win, the Knights move to 5-2 (3-1 in Class B) and will play Rivers on Saturday evening for the tournament championship.
