MOUNT VERNON, WA – With his team trailing 21-10 midway through the second quarter, Landy James III ignited La Conner’s offense by scoring eight straight points, including back-to-back long distance 3 pointers, as the Braves went on a 19-4 run en-route to a 67-60 victory over Mossyrock in the state 2B boys’ basketball tournament regional round of 16.

While James was lighting up the scoreboard on his way to a game-high 22 points, teammate Mike Wilbur scored eight of his 19 points during the Braves’ second period comeback, and La Conner outscored the Vikings 33-9 from beyond the 3-point arc.
