Colfax-Mingo senior Vaughn Wilson scored 24 points and the Tigerhawks (2-6, 1-6) snapped their four-game losing streak and earned their first Heart of Iowa Conference victory Tuesday night with a 71-67 defeat of Saydel in Des Moines.

Wilson wasn’t the only Tigerhawk in double figures, however. Fellow senior Connor Hainer contributed 14 to the cause, senior Austin Yoakum finished with 11 and junior Nate Smith record 10. Rounding out the Tigerhawks’ scorers were senior Byron Johnson (six points), senior Trent Pease (four) and freshman Jared Myers (two).

Colfax-Mingo has now had a 20-point scorer in every game but one this season. The Tigerhawks will host county foe Collins-Maxwell-Baxter on Friday in both teams’ final game before the break.
