PRINEVILLE — Dillon Dees posted a double-double with 16 points and 15 rebounds and Crook County snapped a three-game losing streak Friday as the Cowboys played especially well after halftime to knock off La Pine 57-39 in nonleague boys basketball action.

Chance Sutfin and Preston Washechek added 11 points apiece, and Jacob Mahurin contributed nine for Crook County, which improved to 6-4 with the victory. The Cowboys had won five of their first six games of the season before dropping three in a row between Dec. 15 and 20. Crook County, which was tied with the Hawks 22-22 at halftime, outscored La Pine 35-17 after the break.

Cameron Kraft led the Hawks (6-7) with 13 points and three steals, but La Pine struggled shooting the ball against the Cowboys. The Hawks went just 16 of 52 from the field, including two of 17 from behind the three-point line.

Both teams resume play on Tuesday. Crook County continues Intermountain Hybrid play at Bend High, and La Pine hosts Madras in its final nonleague game of the season.
