Cypress Creek looked the part on Saturday.
From the beginning, the No. 1-ranked team in the state was tenacious on defense, creating multiple turnovers and opportunities for their offense. Led by Texas signees Rori Harmon and Kyndall Hunter, Cypress Creek was impressive. Hunter led the team with 23 points, while Harmon scored 17. Four players overall ended the game in double-digits.
The defense is what was truly impressive.
After a 10-point first quarter, Cypress Creek locked down to allow seven total points over the next two quarters. Cypress Creek's lead ballooned to 32-13 at the half on the way to the 38-point victory.
Cypress Creek moves on to play Heights in the next round, which defeated Ridge Point 61-58 on Saturday.
