Topeka West's boys basketball team survived a barrage of 3-pointers by upset-minded Newton Wednesday night to imporove to 18-2 with a 71-60 Class 5A sub-state semifinal win over the Railers at West.

Two-win Newton canned 10 3-pointers in the first half and 15 for the game, but West finally put the Railers away down the stretch to set up a 3 p.m. matchup Saturday with Seaman (13-8) in the sub-state championship game. Seaman edged Emporia 60-56 Wednesday night.
