Bentonville (1-0) was able to start the season off strong after a bit of a slow start to begin the game.

Senior forward Michael Shanks scored a game-high 14 points, while senior guard Connor Deffebaugh added 13 to lead the way for the Tigers.

Greenwood (1-4) was led by Jayce Garnes, who had a team-high six points for the Bulldogs.

A dunk by Shanks in the second quarter was able to give Bentonville a 23-8 lead and a roar from the crowd. The Tigers didn't look back after that.
