Freshman Forward Leads Dominican to State Championship Game
With a win over Colfax Thursday night, the Knights now face off against an undefeated Cuba City team for the D4 state title.
Fifteen points, fifteen rebounds and 14 blocks is a pretty good game for a freshman basketball player, but for 6-foot-9 forward Diamond Stone it was just another day at the office.
Stone led the Knights to a state semi-finals victory over Colfax at the Kohl Center Thursday night, launching the Division 4 team to the state finals, according to a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel article.
With a final score of 67-44, Dominican's other top scorers were junior guard Duane Wilson, with 22 points and six assists, and senior guard Jamall Taylor, with 15 points and seven rebounds, according to the Journal Sentinel. Both Wilson and Taylor were named to the Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association's Division 4 All-State squad.
