The North Allegheny boys’ basketball team won its fourth consecutive game on Saturday night at the Hoops for a Cure Classic with a 76-27 win over Albert Gallatin. The Tigers jumped out to 29-4 lead in the first quarter and coasted to the victory the rest of the way.

In all, 12 Tigers scored in the blowout victory and the team collectively poured in 11 3-pointers on a hot shooting night from the perimeter. Sophomore Anthony Sciote returned to the lineup and scored nine points off the bench thanks to a trio of treys. Sophomore Joey Dopirak was the game-high scorer with 12 points. Albert Gallatin was paced by sophomore Kameron Pratt’s nine points.
