The Galesburg Silver Streaks boys basketball team get a much deserved victory in the Taylorville Holiday Tournament over the host Taylorville Tornadoes, 57-45.

The Streaks are now 5-11 on the season. Junior Tyree Taylor was named the Dave's Auto Body Crunch-Time Player of the Game for getting the team going right away in the first quarter. He ended the game with 12 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, and 1 block. The Streaks will play their final game of the tournament tonight (12/29) against Rochester.
