WEEK SIX & SEVEN AWARD WINNERS!

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With finishing up the month on my last article for January I've decided the best approach is to combine award winners into one piece. Here are award winners for both weeks. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">BUCKET GETTER</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>WEEK 6: <strong>TREA CUMBERLEDGE</strong> - FAIRMONT SENIOR</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2754032,"width":"176px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/01/cumberledge.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/01/cumberledge.jpg?w=577" alt="" class="wp-image-2754032" style="width:176px;height:auto" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2375557' first='Trea' last='Cumberledge'] knocked down 41 points vs Lewis County on January 15th in a performance that also included 9 rebounds, 4 steals and 2 assists.

Scoring 47 also broke the Wheeling Central school record with this performance. Eli backed that performance up with a double double vs Weir with 24 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>NOTABLES: [player_tooltip player_id='2554047' first='Rasheed' last='Morrison'], [player_tooltip player_id='2694392' first='Lucas' last='Lambert'], [player_tooltip player_id='2324785' first='Bryson' last='Childers'], [player_tooltip player_id='2461904' first='Cole' last='Lemasters'], [player_tooltip player_id='1578731' first='Baustin' last='Bowers'], [player_tooltip player_id='2715910' first='Jerin' last='Westfall'] (31), [player_tooltip player_id='2340458' first='Marshall' last='Dorado'], [player_tooltip player_id='2303401' first='Ashton' last='Arthur'], [player_tooltip player_id='2243493' first='Braedy' last='Johnston'], [player_tooltip player_id='2303389' first='Jeremy' last='Phillips'], [player_tooltip player_id='2528455' first='Levi' last='Wanless'], [player_tooltip player_id='2326132' first='Eli' last='Patton'], [player_tooltip player_id='1578750' first='Jayden' last='Bryant'], [player_tooltip player_id='2686841' first='Austin' last='Porta'], [player_tooltip player_id='2303389' first='Jeremy' last='Phillips'] (31), [player_tooltip player_id='2754039' first='Brock' last='Green'], [player_tooltip player_id='2241530' first='Jaylon' last='Walton']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">DOUBLE DOUBLER</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>WEEK 6: <strong>BRYSON CHILDERS</strong> - CALVARY BAPTIST</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":2751417,"width":"203px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"media"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><a href="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/01/brysonchilders.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/01/brysonchilders.jpg?w=762" alt="" class="wp-image-2751417" style="width:203px;height:auto" /></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2324785' first='Bryson' last='Childers'] has flown under the radar long enough and where here to tell you about it.
