RIVERSIDE:  King basketball (11-5) played their 16th game of the season last night on Poly’s court, the last of the Riverside Unified Schools on the Wolves’ pre-season schedule.

In what became a well played and high-intensity contest — as a rivalry matchup should be — the Wolves drove home victorious, 57-55.  For good measure, it was the first time King had won on Poly’s home boards since 2012.

“We have been resilient, battling a lot of sickness and yet have stayed together,” said King head coach Darius Durham.

25 points were scored by Chukwuma Ezinwa including big shots down the stretch.
