IRONTON — The Arcadia Valley boys basketball team shifted momentum with a solid third quarter at home, and rallied past North County 63-57 on Wednesday night.

Arcadia Valley (7-8) drew to within 35-31 by halftime, and eventually carried a 48-43 advantage heading into the fourth quarter.
North County (2-12) regained the lead at 50-48 on a jumper by John Wruck with 6:39 remaining, but would not keep it for long.
Gavan Douglas answered with a 3-pointer from the right wing, and Gage Douglas extended pressure for an ensuing steal at midcourt before racing in for a layup.
