WEATHERFORD — Jack McCormick scored 25 points and Cole Keeney added 15 to help carry Perrin-Whitt to a 57-44 win over Huckabay in the Region III-1A Division I championship game Saturday.

With the victory, the Pirates improved to 32-5 and earned a berth in the next week’s state semifinals against Brookeland. Huckabay finished 24-12, but with most starters scheduled to return next winter, the future appears promising for the Indians.

McCormick, son of Perrin-Whitt coach Todd McCormick, helped lead dad’s attacking offense to near perfection, as the Pirates were able to consistently draw fouls and earn trips to the free-throw line. The quick — and quick-thinking — guard enjoyed a 13-for-20 day from the line, while Perrin-Whitt shot 35 foul shots in all.
