BUTTE — A state trophy was a long time coming for the Columbia Falls Wildcats, who beat Butte Central 58-53 Saturday in the State A boys basketball consolation game.
So was a big game from Reggie Sapa.
The junior, who suffered a fractured leg in a football game on Sept. 15, had easily his best outing of the season with 16 points. They were needed for the Wildcats (17-9) to win what was in effect a home game for the Maroons (19-6) at the Civic Center.
