DUBUQUE - The Cedar Rapids Washington boys basketball team scored 60 points Tuesday night, by far its best output of the season.

Unfortunately for the Warriors, the other team scored 23 points more than they did.

Jake May pumped in 24 points and snared 14 rebounds as Dubuque Wahlert trumped Washington, 83-60, in a Mississippi Valley Conference ballgame in Dubuque.

Washington (0-4) had scored only 29, 32 and 35 points in its first three games, trying to rebuild after losing Josh Oglesby (Iowa) and Wes Washpun (Tennessee) to major college teams. The Warriors got their offense untracked a little bit Tuesday, but the defense sprung a leak.

Nate Burks scored 18 points for Dubuque Wahlert (2-2) and Riley McCarron popped in 17.

Peter Holmes had a big game for Washington with 20 points and nine rebounds. David Tann scored 10 points. Jason Oney collected five assists for the Warriors.
