TULSA, Oklahoma – Saturday night was the final night of the regular season for some of our area’s high school basketball teams. And what better way to end the season than with a top-10 battle.

Two of the best teams in the area are East Central and Rogers. And they met on Saturday night at East Central.

The Cardinals opened the game on fire. They scored the first 20 points of the game, and just over halfway through the first quarter, they were already up 20-0.

Rogers did come back as the game went on. They actually outscored the Cardinals 18-8 in the 4th quarter. But it was just too little, too late. And East Central ends the regular season with a nice win as they beat Rogers 48-39.
