Hutchinson's 57-54 win on Saturday at Seward County, combined with Cloud County's upset win over Butler, helped the Blue Dragons secure one of the four opening-round byes for the upcoming Region VI Tournament. The Blue Dragons will play on Tuesday, March 11 in the second round of the Region 6 Tournament.
The Blue Dragons have been exceptional defensively in their three-game win streak. The Dragons are allowing only 58.6 points per game and opposing teams are shooting only 37.6 percent.
Over his last two games, freshman Bo Aldridge has averaged 23.0 points and 8.5 rebounds to lead Hutchinson in scoring.
Dodge City, winners of three-straight games and 7 of the last 10, is tied for eighth place in the KJCCC with a shot at being a host team in the first round that begins on Saturday.
The Blue Dragons steamrolled nationally ranked Coffeyville 92-77 on Saturday at Dodge City. The Conquistadors had five players in double figures led by Mynor Strong's 23 points against the Red Ravens.
After the team warm-up and before the National Anthem and introduction of starters, the six Blue Dragon sophomores - Kobe Smith, D.J. Dudley, Khalil Arnold, Mikhail Abdul-Hamid, Isaiah Jackson and Jaquez Thornton and team manager Gavin Mills - will be honored in a brief ceremony.
