About this Article

A quote often attributed to Pablo Picasso reads: “Good artists copy, great artists steal.” If true, Geneva boys basketball coach Phil Ralston ranks among the world’s great artists following his Vikings’ 49-38 victory over Elgin at Chesbrough Field House Thursday. Conceding he borrowed from York, which limited Elgin senior guard Arie Williams to 10 points in a 37-point victory in Elmhurst on Saturday, Ralston employed the same tactics to once again limit Elgin’s high scorer to 10 points.
