I normally don’t do this, but I’m tired and I know the paper was short on space and most of this didn’t get in. So here are the bare bones (no pun intended) look at the Deer Creek Invitational.
But of course, here are the scores.

Panthers make it four in a row
The Bruce Gray Invitational may be at Deer Creek, but it’s been dominated by Putnam City North.
For the fourth year in a row, the Panthers are the champions as PC North took out Mustang 76-50 in the championship Saturday night.
“We feel like this is our home away from home,” tournament MVP Armon Provo said. “We knew it would be tough to bounce back after last night, but we play our best on that third day of the tournament.”
Mustang, the No. 8 seed, made the championship because of its great shooting from the perimeter, but the Broncos didn’t make their first three until third quarter.
The Broncos got to within 50-41 early in the fourth before the Panthers put it away.
Joe Summers scored 20 points while Devin Harris had 19 for PC North. Jacinto Biorato led Mustang with 13 points.
