The Scrubb brothers carried much of the load for the Ravens with two-time National player of the year Phillip Scrubb finishing with a game-high 26 points on 5-of-10 shooting from beyond arc. Thomas Scrubb once again showed why he has been one the top players in the second-half of the year by adding 20 points respectively to along with his five rebounds.

Former Moser winner Tyson Hinz had his best showing of the 2013 Final 8 with a strong double-double of 15 points and 11 rebounds.
