Tied at the end of halftime and at the end of regulation, there was little separation between Riverton and Copper Hills Friday night. But, thanks to a 7-4 advantage in the overtime period, the 11-win Silverwolves secured win No. 12 by a final 71-68 final scoreline. With the win, Riverton improved to 3-0 in Region 3, while Copper Hills (2-1) suffered its first defeat in region play. Logan Dunfield–who finished with a team-high 18 points for Riverton–sunk two free throws with less than a second remaining in regulation to force overtime. But Dunfield’s heroics didn’t stop there, as the senior proceeded to score the game-winning points with less than a second remaining in overtime after securing an offensive rebound. Jaxon Kerekes also added 17 points for Riverton, while the Copper Hills duo of Isaiah Reiser (game-high 23 points) and Kyson Hymas (21 points) proved tough to contain all night long. "That was a great game. Both teams played really hard. It was the most physical game we've had this year. I'm proud of our team. This group is just built different and they found a way to win tonight,” Riverton coach Skyler Wilson said.
