CLASS AAA SEMIFINAL: #WVPrepBB Nitro 63-Shady Spring 49. Ty Stephens led the Wildcats with 26 points with 5-9 shooting from three. Jalon Bailey led 16 points and 7 rebounds. NHS will play either Bridgeport or Fairmont Senior in the Class AAA Championship game tomorrow at 12:30pm. #ThisIsMarch 🏀

Landon Poniatowski grabbed eight rebounds for Nitro, none bigger than this one with 1:11 remaining and Ripley shooting for the lead. He also had three steals.

A key steal in the waning seconds: With Ripley down 48-45 and running its offense for a tying 3-pointer, Nitro’s Derek Lowe pokes the ball away from behind and it lands in the hands of teammate Landon Poniatowski. Wildcats take a timeout with 4 seconds left.

WILDCAT NATION!! Make sure you show up tomorrow to root on your Wildcats. These boys have been working hard to do something that’s never been done in Nitro’s history. Game starts at 11:15 at the Civic Center.

@CBSSportsCBB There is no question It’s the only way.

"I was not in the room for any of that." Chairman of the NCAA Men's Basketball Selection Committee and UNC athletic director Bubba Cunningham explained the process behind the Tar Heels getting into the tournament.

Comical. - @WVUhoops goes 6-10 in Q1 games - Won 10 games in the Big XII - Won at the PHOG - Beat Iowa St - Beat ARZ & ZAGS on a neutral floor That's not even a bubble resume yet along being left out of the dance. The biggest JOKE I have ever seen from this Committee.

Leading 46-43, Nitro runs the clock from 29 to 13 seconds before Landon Poniatowski is fouled. He makes the first free throw and it’s a two-possession game, boosting the Wildcats to victory.

6’4” Senior Forward Ashton Crouch @Ashton_Crouch4 stands 28 points away from the 1,000 career point mark. Come out and support him and your Wildcats as he approaches this accomplishment! (Next 3: v. Hoover 1/21, Morgantown 1/25 at Magnolia HS, v. Winfield 2/4)

step out & guard perimeter guys when needed. He is good around the basket, can rebound on both sides, & can fill up the stat sheets. A true vocal leader & a big piece of Nitro’s success the past few seasons. ‘23-‘24: 6.2 PPG, 7.7 R (2.5 O), 2.2 A, 1 STL, .8 BLK @LandonPoni1

#1 C Landon “Poni” Poniatowski (Sr., 6’5”) ‘Poni’ is a ‘one of a kind’ center. He is often the best passer on the floor, has a high feel for the game, and will end up with the most hustle plays on most nights. His size and strength allow him to guard anyone inside, but he can…

facilitate the offense. Derek is a strong rebounder, a good defender, a great screener - doing a lot of things to help the team win. ‘23-‘24: 9.5 PPG, 4.1 A (2.15 A:TO ratio), 2.6 R, 1 STL @DerekLowe1_

#2 G Derek Lowe (Sr., 6’) Derek shows that’s he’s capable of doing a little bit of everything for this Nitro team. He is a 3-level scorer that is very crafty at getting to the basket and very capable of knocking down the outside shot. He is also a great distributor that helps…

#5 F Ashton Crouch (Sr., 6’4”) Ashton received several conference and AAA-state accolades last year and has shown for years that he is a difficult matchup for most. He scores consistently because of his strength, his ability to finish with both hands, and his ability to…

#11 PG Caylem Thomas (So, 5’9”) Caylem played big minutes as a freshman and showed elite skills as a true PG. His athleticism and ability to handle the ball makes him a hard guard, and impossible to press (2.2 assist:TO ratio as freshman)….
