Final Score: Withrow 76, Wayne 60
Yancey Gates, who is headed to the University of Cincinnati on a basketball grant-in-aid, dunked six times and led the Withrow Tigers past the Wayne Warriors in the nightcap of the Division I boys regional semifinals at Xavier University’s Cintas Center.
Withrow’s victory sets up a rematch with Cincinnati St. Xavier for the regional title on Saturday at 11 a.m.
St. X defeated Withrow for the 2007 regional title, 49-48, on this same floor a year ago, and the Bombers eventually lost to Moeller in the state championship game.
Withrow’s Chris “Big House” Grimes was a rebounding machine for the Tigers.
Wayne put three players in double figures. DJ Lenoir had 15 points, Markus Crider added 11 and Travis Trice 10.
