Commerce’s Tigers are not ready to end the basketball season just yet.
A third-place finish in the region tournament last week secured the Tigers a spot in the playoffs.
“I am very proud of this team,” coach Chad Bridges said. “We have received contributions from 10 different players this year. All 10 of those have started games for us at one time or another. This has been truly a team effort. The guys have been more concerned with team success than individual success.”
The tournament finish pushed the Tigers into the first round of the state playoffs against Paideia. Commerce will head to Atlanta on Saturday to begin the Tigers’ state tournament campaign. Tip-off is at 5:30 p.m. and admission is $7 at the gate.
