Sunrise Christian won the game 54-40 and controlled every aspect of the game and never let Wesley Christian get into a rhythm.
Leading scorers: Wesley Christian: Keith Clemons 11, T.J. Smith 9. Sunrise Christian: Isiah Jacey 19, Khaleem Bennett 16.
MVP: Isiah Jacey (Sunrise Christian)
Jacey was so good in this one on both ends. He really got to the basket and displayed a really strong inside spin move that led to a few easy buckets. He got his defender into foul trouble and once he fouled out it was basically game over. He had 19 points and added 14 rebounds.
Best offensive performance: Khaleem Bennett (Sunrise Christian)
I was very intrigued by what I saw from Bennett in the game. He really got to the rim well and finished. He also knocked a lot of his free throws down in the game and made the defense really key in on him in the midrange.
Best defensive performance: Christian Lorng (Wesley Christian)
Lorng gets defensive player of the game because even though he fouled out while guarding Jacey he really held him down for the most part. Only six points were scored while Lorng was guarding him and that’s a tall task to ask.
Best Play: Isiah Jacey dunks
Jacey threw down a few monster jams near the end of the game and it really got the Washington crowd into it. Jacey is an athletic freak and anytime he was near the rim he looked to throw it down.
Best Takeaway: Isiah Jacey is going to be really, really good at Texas A&M and Christian Lorng will be good with some time. They both are tremendous talents and both will have great careers. Both teams will be fine after this low scoring matchup, they have so much talent.
