2021 Delaware County boys basketball tournament: Yorktown defeats Delta in the 1st round

MUNCIE, Ind. — The only first round game of the 2021 Delaware County boys basketball tournament featured the two largest schools in the bracket: Delta and Yorktown.

The two met earlier in the season at Yorktown and the Eagles won that game by 15 points. Wednesday night, however, the Tigers flipped the script and won 56-42.

With the victory, Yorktown advances to Friday's county semifinal at Cowan. The other semifinal will feature Wes-Del at Wapahani. Wes-Del automatically advanced after Daleville was forced to withdraw due to COVID-19 quarantine.

Here's a look at the results from every game this week (this page will be updated following each round of the tournament):
