Canyon completes comeback, defeating Villa Park



The Comanches defeated the Spartans 66-59, after Canyon was down as many as 15 points.

Canyon's Chris Anderson led the way with a season-high 27 points, 12 rebounds, and 7 assists.

"He's the best player in the county," said Canyon head coach Nate Harrison. "He's one of the best players in the state, if not the country. He's that good."

Anderson may have played with little more gusto since his older brother, UCLA's Jerime Anderson cheered him on from behind the Canyon bench.

"It's great when he comes out and supports me," said Chris Anderson. "It's good to see him in the stands. It helps me out."

Jerime Anderson, a former county player of the year, was impressed with younger brother's play.

"He just took the game over in the second half," said Jerime Anderson. "He's a beast. I love watching him play."

Canyon outscored Villa Park 36-17 in the second half.
