It was a consequential Region 6 matchup between two of the region’s top three teams, as Brighton made the short trip to Skyline Friday night. With no side holding more than a three point lead at the end of any of the first three quarters, the teams were neck and neck throughout, but in the end the Eagles edged out a 74-70 victory. Skyline needed strong performances from seniors Yorgio Golesis (game-high 28 points), Kai Tulsian (18 points), Peter Broadbent and Jack Huntsman in order to counteract the intensity and scrappiness of the 10-win Bengals. The win gave Skyline a game and a half lead over Brighton in the Region 6 standings (trailing Olympus, which is undefeated in region play). The teams will meet again on Valentine’s Day. “We love our guys and we are just trying to get better. Our goal is to be the best version of ourselves at tournament time and this was a step in the right direction,” Skyline coach Marcus Frazier said.
