It is looking more and more like Phoenix Pinnacle could wind up as the top team in boys basketball power points for Class 5A Division II. "="">
The Pioneers still have four games remaining, so nothing is a given. But if they play out the regular season the way they did against host Scottsdale Chaparral on Tuesday night (Feb. 1), the stars should be aligned for them.
"="">
Pinnacle had four double-figure scorers and had 10 players put points on the board to earn a 72-62 victory.
"="">
Pinnacle was No. 1 in power points entering the game, Chaparral No. 2. Pinnacle raised its overall record to 19-3 while Chaparral slipped to 15-8 after dropping its third straight game and losing its first home game of the season.
"="">
This one was a far cry from when the teams met at Pinnacle on Jan. 14, when Pinnacle held on for a 68-67 victory.
