[QUOTE]Kyle Wiltjer and the Jesuit Crusaders are one win away from a historic three-peat.

Wiltjer finished with 19 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists –- all game highs –– to pace the two-time defending champion Crusaders to a 77-61 victory over Central Catholic in Friday’s semifinals of the OSAA Class 6A boys basketball tournament at the Rose Garden.

The victory puts the top-ranked Crusaders (25-2) into Saturday’s 8:30 p.m. championship game with a chance to become the first boys team to win three consecutive big-school titles in Oregon high school basketball history.

“Gosh, I’m having too much fun,” Wiltjer said. “We’re right where we wanted to be. We took care of business. I’m just proud of the guys. We’re all happy right now.”
