The Santa Clara Broncos had a huge victory over the Oregon Ducks on Saturday night, winning 88-82. The Broncos were led by guard Trey Wertz, who scored a career-high 25 points. Wertz was instrumental in the Broncos’ success, as he was able to create shots for himself and his teammates throughout the game.
The Broncos started off the game strong, taking an early lead and never looking back. Wertz was the catalyst for the Broncos’ offense, as he was able to get to the basket and score in a variety of ways. He was able to knock down shots from beyond the arc, as well as get to the free throw line and convert his attempts. His performance was key in helping the Broncos pull away from the Ducks in the second half.
In addition to Wertz’s performance, the Broncos also received strong contributions from forward Josip Vrankic and guard Tahj Eaddy. Vrankic was able to get to the basket and score in the paint, while Eaddy was able to knock down shots from beyond the arc. The two combined for 28 points, which was key in helping the Broncos secure the victory.
