One day after stunning fourth-seeded Bloom at the iconic Pontiac Holiday Tournament, Benet had no interest in allowing the upstart Tigers' boys basketball team a second consecutive upset.
Benet concocted a rematch of the 2016 Class 4A state championship game as undefeated and top-seeded Curie awaits in the second semifinal on Thursday. Thomas, despite sitting out considerable minutes in the first half with a second foul, also tormented the Tigers in the interior with 7 of his 9 field goals."Everything starts on the inside," said Thomas, the 6-foot-9 center who transferred from the now-shuttered St. Joseph, the school legendary coach Gene Pingatore made famous.
