Deep South Classic

Radar beeps on Hannah

Snellville, GA (Brookwoods Gymnasium)

Day 2 – Round 2

Brookwood “Broncos” 74, East Anchorage “Thunderbirds” 55

Not much to say about this one. Sean Johnson would score the first 2 points of the game and Rashaad Hannah would be all over the boards. Russ Kanner would drill a three pointer from the corner to move the score 9-3 with 4:53 to go in the first period and Rashaad would hit a remarkable reverse lay up. Kanner would answer again at the buzzer with a jumper and the first period ends 23-8. The Broncos would go in at the half on top 34-28. The Thunderbirds would have a 20-8 run in the second period, catapulted by Damar Wilson and Dennis Wilson.

Rashaad Hannah lead the way with a game high 23 points, followed by Russ Kanner 17 points.

East Anchorage (AK)

Chattachoochee “Cougars”48, Shelbyville Central “Golden Eagles” (TN) 44

The Cougars would be up 37-29 in the fourth period with 3:37 left. The Golden Eagles would have to start fouling, praying for bad free throw shooting by the Cougars to attempt a comeback victory. Clutch free throw shooting from Clint Boling sealed the deal.

Deep South Classic
Baby Paul Harris 25 points end Champs Streak
Snellville, GA (Comets Gymnasium)

Day 1 – Round 1

Peachtree Ridge High School “Lions” 57 vs. South Gwinnett “Comets” 50

Zachary Graham 6'5 Jr. F aka "Baby Paul Harris" (You got to feel me L.A.) / Cameron Heyward 6'6 Jr. F / Bassey Inameti 6'8 Jr. F/C (On Da Bricks)

Delano Howard open up the game with a three pointer to get the Comets on a roll. Zachary Graham would then go on a 10-0 run of his own moving the score to 10-3, scoring 8 straight points in the first period. Kut Note: Zachary Graham a super junior reminds you of a baby Paul Harris (LA you feel me). That boy Bassey Inameti a Meadowcreek transfer was a beast on the boards and above the rim (you seen him "On Da Bricks"). Inameti finished with 2 dunks, one to give the Lions the lead 33-32 with 3:36 to go in the third period. The three time champs would not have enough in the end to defend the title and would have to move into the losers bracket. A new champion will be crown this year.

Peachtree Ridge
Zachary Graham finished with a monster 25 points and Bassey Inameti followed with 8 points.

South Gwinnett
Delano Howard would finish with a team high effort with 12 points. Nick Gil 11 points, Mike Chatman 10 points and Avery Jukes 9 points 5 Blocks 8 rebounds.

Spartanburg High School “Vikings” (Spartanburg, SC) 57 vs. Fredrick Douglass “Astros” 55

Sr.-Rory Spencer (Douglass) and So.-Omar Sanders (Spartanburg)

The game would go down to the wire. The Astros Rodney Wright would make a last second attempt to win the game with a three pointer with 7 seconds left in the game but come up an inch short. The Vikings Danny Jones would sink the winning basket for his team and the team from South Carolina lives to play another day.

Spartanburg
