SOUTH POINT — Ho hum. Just another tournament win.

The South Point Pointers racked up another tournament win as they routed the Oak Hill Oaks 62-42 in the Division 3 sectional semifinals on Monday.

“We didn’t play with any real enthusiasm. We kind of just went through the motions,” said Pointers’ coach Travis Wise.

“But the name of the game is survive and advance and that’s what we did. We’ll get to work and be ready on Friday.”

South Point (13-9) will play Eastern Brown at 8 p.m. on Friday at Waverly’s downtown arena.
