Comments about ‘High school basketball: Knights' 'supporting cast' shines in victory over rival Vikings’

Once again PG falls apart against Lone peak with 4 minutes to go. Rivalries are were both teams win now and then, Lone peak has dominated this series therefore I wouldn't call this a rival game for Lone Peak. Now Provo and Lone Peak are rivals!!

Haws kept LP in it early with huge buckets in transition. But even me being a LP fan, CJ really is a talent. He ran out of gas late, but it took me really four years to realize his greatness.

Props to Pederson and Smith. They hit big shots.

I thought this was a great High School Game! Both teams played well but Lone Peak made the plays down the stretch. I was very impressed with LP offence and the confidence Haws and Coaches had in some of the other players to take the big shots in the 4th quarter. Sorry to see PG lose but congrats to Coach Lewis and his staff on a game well prepared for and played. They will be tough to beat at State

I agree, CJ probably was tired having guarded Haws tonight, but still scored 29 points. Scorers don't guard the other teams top scorer as it can tire them out on the offence side of the ball. I noticed Haws wasn't guarding CJ unless he broke through the lane. Tough to win with only 7 baskets in the 2nd half. Good luck CJ at the Univ of Washington!

Two great players and even better people. It is nice to see them act with such class and dignity on and off the court. Good luck to both of you at the next level.

are you talking about PG vs LP. Because T.Haws played for AF 2005 and CJ Wilcox didn't play for PG in 2005.

Great Game and kudos to both teams for a great effort. It was the best game I've seen CJ play under such tough circumstances. What a player! It was a classic BIG TIME high school game and environment. It was thrilling to hear the roar of the crowd in the packed gym when Smith hit those three bombs that blew the game wide open. CLUTCH! (But I was left to wonder why Smith doesn't get the ball more often? He was wide open most of the game.) Austin played his best game when it mattered most. Kudos all around! I would love to see these two teams in the finals at State!

I dont know about CJ but has played for LP since his Freshman Year. There was a haws down in AF but not the same person and not as good

CJ and LeSean both played as a Freshman but did not start. They both started 3 years for PG. CJ could get player of the year this year depending on how they do in state.

Haws started all 4 years. His Freshman season was up and down. From his Sophmore year forward he has been remarkable.

Not even comparable to Tyler Haws. Tyler is the best we will see in a long long time in my opinion. He kept Lone Peak in it early with his flawless transition game, something most high school kids just don't possess. CJ was great, too. But he did falter in the end. I love Sefa. He's an automatic mismatch because of his size and feathery shooting touch. It was a great game, lots of fun to be there. Lone Peak gets credit, they were down most of the game and hit mammoth shots when it mattered.

Player of the year? CJ definitely has the numbers, but Haws's are right with his in less playing time. Both have had to carry their teams at points this season. Haws won the head to head. Interesting debate for sure. I would say whichever one comes thru big in march. And then of course we'll have these Provo people saying collinsworth. They've played a brutal schedule with tooele and payson four times.

Haws or Wilcox

Tyler has played with 6 D1 players in his career. Is this correct?

Has CJ played with D1 players in his career?

actually lesean started his freshman year.

During his four years, Tyler has played with the following players who have gone or will go D1:

Jackson Emery (BYU)
Bracken Funk (Fresno State)
Justin Hamilton (Iowa State)
Josh Sharp (Utah)
Nate Austin (BYU)
Dillon Smith (San Diego, Boise State, Air Force, Fresno State among others)

Several other players Tyler has played with will play or have play at the next level (e.g. Division II, JC):

Kevin Lindquist (Dixie)
Ryan Rios (Dixie)
Landon Clegg (Dixie)
Kimball Payne (Dixie)
Gabe Smith (Western Wyoming)
Brandon Knight (???)
Brandon Reeves (TBD)
Tommy Tebbs (TBD)
Tannen Pedersen (TBD)

Actually, CJ started the first 3 or 4 games and then LeSean later to rotate through the year.

How does playing with D1 players make Haws a better player? He has played with four, and ten total college players. But after last year everyone was saying "haws can't do it without his loaded team" well now he's proven himself to everyone. He's carried the team, played sick, and put up the best numbers of his life while still only losing two games.

Never played with him. Until next year, that is.

I believe Knight played at BYU-Hawaii, as does Cory Chase, who was not mentioned.

Everyone talks about how much Tyler wins. He should! Even this year, he is playing with a D1 player. All you guys want to say is Tyler is better than CJ because Tyler wins head-to-head. He should! If CJ played with as many D1 players that Tyler has played with, so you are going to tell me that Tyler still would have beat CJ head-to-head? CJ has NOT played with ONE!
