Ely applied the gas from the opening tip, creating turnovers and scoring easy bucket and building a 40-14 lead by halftime.
“I didn’t know what to expect going into the first game but was impressed with how the team played,” said McDonald, Ely’s longtime head coach. “I thought we played well from the start. We jumped out on them with our pressure and hit some shots and never looked back.”
