Cedar Rapids-Iowa City Metro recaps and Gazette area scores from high school basketball games on Friday, Jan. 12, 2018.

Metro boys

Linn-Mar 58, 4A No. 7 Dubuque Hempstead 56

Linn-Mar got a road upset Friday night, taking down No. 7 Dubuque Hempstead, 58-56, at Dubuque.

The Lions were led by Trey Hutcheson with 18 points.

3A No. 4 Cedar Rapids Xavier 58, Iowa City High 43

Jackson Joens had 18 points and Matt Mims had 17 points, six steals and six assists as the Saints won at Iowa City.

Cedar Rapids Prairie 87, Waterloo East 62

4A No. 1 Iowa City West 73, Cedar Rapids Washington 50

The top-ranked Trojans remained undefeated behind 18 points from Patrick McCaffery and 17 points from Seybian Sims at Cedar Rapids.

Campbell Mitvalsky had 15 points for Washington (3-7).

Alburnett 77, Cedar Valley Christian 27

The Pirates sank eight 3-pointers in a home victory.

Marion 60, Clear Creek Amana 37

Maybe the Marion boys' basketball team is on to something here. A foolproof method to not losing close games is not playing any.

The Indians didn't play one Friday night, rolling up lots of points early and whacking Clear Creek Amana, 60-37. This was a welcomed relief for a club that has lost five games this season by seven points or less and four by four or less.

Chase Zielke hit a quartet of 3-pointers and scored a game-high 21 points for the Indians.

Before the game, Bill McTaggart presented Tom Lilly with a bowling ball, a gag gift stemming from Lilly's trademark shoes.

Then it was McTaggart's team that continued to roll.

Class 5A top-ranked Iowa City High stymied 4A No. 12 Cedar Rapids Xavier with its quick hands, forcing 25 turnovers in a 72-46 Mississippi Valley Conference girls' basketball victory Friday night at Ron Thillen Gymnasium.
