Cherry sophomore guard Isaac Asuma’s last name is pronounced “awesome-ah,” phonetically appropriate given his performance in Wednesday’s Class 1A boys’ basketball state tournament quarterfinal.

Asuma led all scorers with 31 points and 17 rebounds, pushing his team to a 68-57 victory over a Nevis team which won the teams’ first meeting 67-45 at home on Jan. 18.
