About this Article

St. Edward boys basketball coach P.J. White wanted to emphasize how much Friday night's victory was a team effort. Four players scored in double figures as the Green Wave beat host Westminster Christian, 60-46, to win Pool A and advance to the championship game of the 6th annual Warrior Thanksgiving Classic. "The kids played hard, for four quarters I think they played hard," White said. "If we can keep the inside-outside thing going, we'll be just fine."
