By Greg Perkins The Joseph City Wildcats picked up wins in two of three games played in their final week of 2015. Last Tuesday they fell at home to a good St. Johns team, losing to the Redskins 75-50. Tristan Richard did his job, netting 14 points. Forester Flake connected on three of six three-point shots to finish with 12 points. Koby Smith also added 12 and pulled down 11 rebounds. Matt Fields scored 7 points; Troy Poudrier, 3; and Aaron Johnstun, 2. The Wildcats won last Thursday’s game at Rock Point, 69-59. Smith had a huge night, scoring 35 points and pulling down 19 rebounds. Fields added 17 points; Richard, 8; Flake, 4; Poudrier, 3; and KJ Kinlicheenie, 2. On Friday night the Cats were on the road once again, where they held off Seligman 60-56 to win their sixth game of the season against just four losses. Joseph City will play in the St. Johns Holiday Classic on Friday and Saturday, Jan. 1 and 2. On Friday the Cats face Round Valley and Valley Lutheran. Saturday’s games on the second will be determined by the previous day’s results. They return to the regular season action on Tuesday, Jan. 5, when they travel to Grand Canyon.
