Facing a top Chicago-area team like DeLaSalle, the Neuqua Valley boys basketball team needed to play its best Friday night in the title game of the Hoops for Healing Tournament in Oswego.
It was not an issue for the Wildcats (4-0), who led from late in the second quarter on for good and hit the gas pedal in the final period with a 29-point outburst for a 73-51 victory.
