Late surge: Boyd bested by Berkner in bi-district

By Richard C. White, rwhite@starlocalnews.com
GARLAND -- Despite playing them close for much of the night, McKinney Boyd was unable to repeat its early season success as the Broncos were beaten by Richardson Berkner, 59-48, in Tuesday night's bi-district matchup from Naaman Forest High School.

Boyd had previously beaten Berkner 58-50 earlier this season on Dec. 4. Boyd finishes the 2012-13 season with a 20-10 record while Berkner (29-5) continues on to play in the area round.

Although they were unable to beat Berkner for a second time this year, the game marks the end of a memorable season for Boyd's basketball program.

The Plano East boys basketball team will stop by the American Airlines Center for a quick tune-up before beginning the postseason.


The Panthers will be among eight Metroplex teams in action Saturday from the AAC for the McDonald's High School Basketball Classic. Taking the floor at 4 p.m., East will play Dallas Lincoln.

The matchup features a pair of the top teams in both the area and state, with the Panthers -- ranked No. 3 in Class 5A by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches -- squaring off against a Lincoln squad ranked No. 3 in 4A by the same outlet.

East will officially begin the playoffs next week against either Dallas Skyline or Lake Highlands.
