Sparks outworks Carson High boys basketball
Friday night saw Class 3A’s Sparks High take down Carson, 49-37.
The first win for the Railroaders came with a team display on the glass, outrebounding the Senators throughout the contest.
Carson settled for a number of 3-pointers, shooting just 4-of-26 from beyond the arc in the loss.
DeCarlo Quintana led Carson with 12 points and 12 rebounds.
Quentin Beck had seven points, six rebounds and a steal for the Senators.
Thomas Burchett added nine more for Carson.
“We just weren’t patient enough,” said Carson High head coach Ty Golden. “We have to play inside out and it was really the opposite (Friday).”
Orande Todd led Sparks with 18 points and the Railroaders pulled away from the Senators in the second half. The Senators are 1-3 on the year.
“I think right now it’s a question of toughness. As a team, we have to be tougher. It’s not a hope that DC (Quintana) can jump and grab it over five guys,” Golden said in reference to his team’s rebounding performance.
UP NEXT: Carson will jump back into league play Thursday at home against Galena (3-1, 1-1) for a 7 p.m. tip-off. The Senators host Reno (7-1, 0-1) Saturday at 2 p.m.
