Senior starter <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1043217' first='AJ' last='Nash']</strong> averaged 21.5 ppg, 5.5 rpg. [player_tooltip player_id='2675160' first='Bronzden' last='Chaffin'] amassed a double-double against the Cobras (14, 11r). <strong>Kameron Bush</strong> scored 11 points and <strong>Clayton Harris'</strong> contribution was big (8p, 7r, 4a).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Lebanon</strong> (80) vs. Sycamore (38)<br>Two games, two wins. Mr. Basketball candidate [player_tooltip player_id='1039192' first='Jarred' last='Hall'] is making a strong case for #1 in the Class of 2023, a spot he has held for approximately 7 months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Raleigh-Egypt (44) vs. <strong>Brentwood</strong> (67)<br>Coming off an 18p, 9r year, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1214939' first='Daniel' last='Cochran']</strong> dominated the Pharaohs, rattling off 27 points in a blowout 67-44 win. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1329774' first='Nick' last='Degnan']</strong> (PrepHoopsTN #72) helped with 15 points and forward <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1329987' first='Kyler' last='Green']</strong> and <strong>Hudson McKnight</strong> scored 9 and 6 respectively. The Bruins finished 2021-2022 16-11, but they played better than that overall record in the February-March. [player_tooltip player_id='1214939' first='Daniel' last='Cochran'] is the favorite for District MVP. Brentwood shot a blistering 62% for the game, primarily by electing smart shots, makeable shots. The scrappiness of [player_tooltip player_id='1529946' first='Mason' last='Ball'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1329774' first='Nick' last='Degnan'] made a difference. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">Raleigh-Egypt Roster</span></strong><br>Jaylon Taylor (2023)<br>Jewell Smith (2024)<br>Demarion Lewis (2024)<br>Justin Cooks (2025)<br>Demario Lewis (2023)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
