TACOMA, Wash. — Zoom Diallo scored 22 points and hit key shots at the end of regulation and overtime to lead No. 2 Curtis past top-ranked Mount Si in the WIAA Class 4A state championship on Saturday at the Tacoma Dome. 

The sophomore point guard was masterful on both end of the floor, as was junior point guard Tyce Paulsen, who had a steal and uncontested go-ahead layup with 21.4 seconds left in overtime.
