JAMESTOWN — The Jamestown High School boys basketball team ended Watford City's season on Saturday afternoon.
The Blue Jays defeated the Wolves 102-54 in the WDA play-in game Saturday to punch their ticket to the WDA tournament for the fourth-straight season.
"It was great to play well and we get to continue playing next week," JHS head coach Jacoby Lloyd said. "Our focus is now on Mandan and the WDA tournament. We have been sharing the basketball well and rebounding well the last two weeks and that has to continue for us to have success next week."
Noah Meissner led the Blue Jays in total scoring with 23 points. The Blue Jays had five of its 11 contributors hit double digits. Payton Hochhalter had his highest-producing game since returning from his knee injury.
The Blue Jays are set to face off against Mandan in the opening round of the WDA tourney. Tip-off is scheduled for Mar. 2 at 8:15 p.m. at the Bismarck Events Center.
