Oak Hill (Mouth of Wilson, Va.) seized on its height and athletic advantage -- together with 'Iolani's poor shooting -- Thursday night as the Warriors rolled past the Raiders, 62-30, in the 'Iolani Prep Classic quarterfinals.

Oak Hill, ranked No. 6 in the USA Today Super 25, will face No. 12 Montrose Christian (Rockville, Md.) in Friday's 8 p.m. semifinal. The popular annual dunk contest will follow.

'Iolani will face Yates (Houston) in a 3:30 p.m. fifth-place bracket game.

The Raiders took a 2-0 lead on Marc Ma's layup 69 seconds into the game and tied it at 4-4 on Ikaika Phillip's reverse with 4:34 remaining in the first period, but the Warriors responded with a 12-0 run to finish the quarter.

Ma opened the second period with a putback to close it to 16-6, but Oak Hill answered with a 7-3 run that pushed it to 23-9 after Troy Williams' free throw with 4:42 left in the half. The Warriors then ended the quarter with a 6-1 spurt to take a 32-13 lead into the break.

After Ma opened the second half with a layup to close it to 32-15, but Oak Hill then blitzed to a 15-2 run that essentially put the game out of reach at 47-17 midway through the third period.

Williams, a 6-foot-6 swingman who has signed to play for Indiana University next season, led all scorers with 17 points and Rokas Gustys added 11 points.
