FRISCO — The Waxahachie Runnin’ Indians made the most of their two-day appearance in the Dallas Mavericks Fall Classic on Tuesday, winning two consolation games to finish 3-1 in the Blue Division of the tournament.
The Indians (5-2) opened the day with an easy 86-53 victory over Dallas St. Mark’s at Frisco High School.
Later Tuesday, the Runnin’ Indians returned to Independence High School and held on for a 62-60 win over Plano Prestonwood Christian.
Dallas Faith Family won the Blue Division championship over Plano John Paul II on Tuesday, 86-43.
Keller, which beat the Indians in the second round of the winner’s bracket on Monday, captured third place with a 70-57 win over Dallas Greenhill School; and Frisco Independence, which WHS edged in the tourney opener, won the consolation with a 57-45 decision over Prosper.
The Runnin’ Indians will get a second look at Keller following Thanksgiving break, hosting the other Indians on Tuesday at Mike Turner Gymnasium.
