Limiting San Juan to just three first-quarter points, the Wolverine boys withstood the Broncos' 25-point response in the second and maintained their game to win last Saturday on the road in Blanding, Utah, 73-58.
BHS scored 28 points in the second. Junior forward Zane Phelps' 17-point, 11-rebound led the way for Bayfield (4-1, 0-0 3A Intermountain), which also got 14 points from junior guard Taed Heydinger, 12 from senior center Preston Hardy, 10 from senior guard Trevor Gabbard and 10 from senior guard/forward Dillon Hoselton.
The Broncos trailed 40-28 at halftime and 58-42 through three quarters.
Bayfield will enjoy a well-deserved Christmas Break before officially ringing in 2015 at home on Jan. 6 against Gallup Miyamura. The Patriots will enter 3-7 overall and on a five-game losing streak.
