With three games remaining on the regular season schedule, the Carson High boys clinched the league title Tuesday night at home by running past the visiting Wooster Colts, 54-30.
Their undefeated streak now stretches to 13-0 in the Sierra League. They are 11-5 overall.
The Senators started out cool on offense, trailing slightly after the opening period, a pattern of the last few games.
But they got hot in the second quarter, busting open the game with an 18-2 run to post a commanding 14-point advantage at the half.
Carson never relinquished the lead — or the point-spread — from there, outscoring the Colts 20-10 down the home stretch of the fourth period to pull away handily.
Asa Carter led the Senators with a game-high 17 points, followed by teammate Tez Allen, who posted 13 points for Carson.
Carson has three games left before the post-season, including two more home stands. The Senators play their final road game of the season at Galena Friday night at 7 p.m. They then host Bishop Manogue next Tuesday, and are home for the final game of the season against Douglas on Feb. 12.
