Hays High hung through the first eight minutes with #10 Dodge City. The second eight minutes though was a different story. In the first quarter the Hays High zone forced Dodge City to shoot three pointers and the Red Demons responded with misses, making just one of seven. That allowed Hays to keep with in striking distance of the conference leaders down 8-6 after one quarter.

The Indians employed the same strategy in the second quarter, but Dodge City made four of their six attempts. Dodge City went on a 16-1 run to blow the game open and lead 31-11 at half time.
