KAMIAH — In spite of a mid-game injury that took him out of commission for a substantial stretch of play, Dave Kludt led the Kamiah Kubs to a 67-38 boys basketball victory over visiting Lapwai in 2A Whitepine League competition on Wednesday.
The game was deadlocked at 16 points apiece through the first quarter. Unbeaten Kamiah (4-0, 1-0) opened a seven-point halftime lead, then came out “firing on all cylinders” in the third quarter, according to coach Aaron Skinner, to blow the game wide open with a 23-2 run. Kludt finished with a game-high 20 points, while Lawson Landmark (14) and Matthew Oatman (10) were other major offensive contributors.
For the Wildcats (0-3, 0-2), Vincent Kipp scored a team-high 18 points.
