The final game of the night featured the varsity boys. This was a good game throughout as the two alternated leads on the scoreboard multiple times. Going into the half the fans were watching a 19-15 contest with the Dragons holding the advantage. The second half did not disappoint as the good play continued. The Red Devils turned on their pressure defense and that allowed them to catch up and assume the lead. Both teams swapped the lead several times and during the final period but it was Midway behind a 17-point effort from George Smith that won the game 36-34. Two Red Devils added six points each, Conner Sams and Tyler Myatt. Levi Peoples had five and rounding out the total was James Satkowski with two.
