JFK PUNCHES TICKET TO CHAMPIONSHIP

/in /by

WARREN, Ohio –

Four different JFK Eagles (11-4) scored double digits to defeat the Jackson–Milton Blue Jays (15-10) 60-44 and keep their district title hopes alive.

The Eagles were up by 16 with 4:08 left in the third quarter, then 7 with just the final quarter to play. While the final margin of victory shows JFK had the game firmly in hand, it is not truly indicative of this matchup.

Jackson-Milton’s 16-point third quarter, led by senior guard Mason Robison’s 10 points in the quarter, got them back into the fight and had JFK on their heels. Trailing by 5 with less than 10 seconds to play in the quarter, Milton had the ball to in bounds, but a miscommunication led to a wide-open layup for JFK, a possible 4-pointswing.

All the momentum Jackson-Milton seemed to have built up was taken away with their mistake and JFK’s hot start to the 4th. The Eagles finished with 14 points in the final quarter of play and did a terrific job of holding the basketball and draining the clock.

LEADING SCORERS:

Warren JFK

Cam Hollobaugh – 13 points

Gabe Green – 12 points

Michael Condoleon – 11 points

TJ Harden – 11 points

Jackson Milton

Mason Robison – 20 points

Frank Prozy – 10 points

UP NEXT:

Warren JFK – Looking to repeat as district champs, JFK must now face off with the McDonald Blue Devils (22-2). The Blue Devils barely escaped the upset in the previous round, needing a buzzer beater to defeat Valley Christian in overtime. McDonald will play host to the Eagles at Robert McClary Gym in McDonald, Ohio.
