Gritty performance can’t get Pryor past Bishop Kelley

Kenny Howell

TULSA - They went down, but they went down fighting.

The Pryor Tigers gave 5A No. 14 Bishop Kelley a battle Friday night, but came up short 56-48.

The Tigers came out firing and a Jordan Madole three-pointer gave Pryor the early 7-6 lead. At the end of one, Pryor led 14-12.

Joe Dowdell got the Comets started in the second with a three-pointer to give the lead back to Kelley, 15-14. They would hold the lead until later in the quarter when two Matt Ogg free throws put Pryor up, 23-22. At the half, the Tigers led 26-24.

The back and forth game continued in the third quarter. Jack Cameron hit a jumper to put Kelley up 27-26, but Pryor answered right back with a P.J. Stimson layup to make it 28-27. The Comets built their biggest lead up to that point, going up 35-29, but Pryor battled back and a Kody Conley bucket and free throw tied the game back up at 37-37. At the end of the third, Kelley led 39-38.

The Comets pulled away in the fourth, as the lead got as big as 10. Pryor kept fighting, but couldn’t overcome the lead.

Parker Ballard led Pryor with 13 points. Brady Jarboe added 10. Cameron led Kelley with 19.
