RENO — Trent Robison scored a season-best 26 points to lead Carson High to a 50-46 win over North Valleys in a 4A boys crossover game Saturday afternoon.
The Senators led wire to wire, but the lead never reached double digits, according to coach Jordan Glover.
“We played hard,” Glover said. “That is what I like about this team is that they are so coachable and always play so hard.
“We played under control. There have been games this year where we have played at the other team’s tempo. Today, we played at our tempo.”
On Friday, Carson dropped a 59-54 decision to McQueen.
The Senators played without Jonny Randall, who was ill and didn’t travel with the team on Friday.
Robison and Abel Carter both had 13 points, and Derek Barry added 12. Carter went 8-for-8 from the foul line.
Carson plays in the Livermore Tournament this week starting on Thursday at 6:30 p.m.
