| The Brossart Mustang JVs arrived at the Mason Fieldhouse on Saturday morning with Threepeat on their minds. Their opening round opponent were the highly regarded Harrison County Thorobreds who came into the contest with a respectable 4-1 record. The Mustangs were still recovering from an intense two hour varsity practice from the evening before but showed now ill-effects as they put on another execution clinic pushing out to a 8-5 lead after a quarter and had the game safely salted away 27-12 by halftime. The Mustangs would open a 41-18 lead after three periods before cruising through the fourth quarter, winning the contest easily 53-28. All eleven Mustangs made it into the scoring column, with no Mustang hitting double figures, which demonsrates the offensive potency of this entire ballteam. Josh Kidney, Nathan Mutsch, and Troy Cooper each contributed 9 points as the Mustangs posted their ninth consecutive victory against no losses, earning a berth in the finals where they would meet the host Mason County Royals following the Harrison County-Montgomery County consolation game.
