E-town boys run past McCaskey
I just got home from Daubert Gymnasium, where I watched E-town hand J.P. McCaskey an 81-71 defeat, the Tornado's first L-L League loss since the 2006-2007 season.
E-town, fresh off its heart-stopping overtime win against Penn Manor on Thursday, frustrated the Tornado several times with good defense and hung with a very quick, athletic McCaskey team from the onset. The game was tied 17-17 after the first quarter, and McCaskey led 41-40 at the half. The score was back and forth for the entire first half, with E-town's Jeremi Jones hitting a 3 with seven seconds left to trim the Bears' deficit to one.
In the second half, E-town pulled away slowly. The Bears led 63-58 after three quarters and led by as many as 12 in the fourth quarter before winning by 10.
I'll have much more on this game tomorrow, including an interview with EAHS head coach Kevin Dolan and captain Quinn Cozzens. But until then, here are some individual stats from tonight. I'm not even sure when the last time E-town beat McCaskey in basketball, or if it's ever happened. If anyone knows, please let me know in the comments or shoot me an email at sports.etown@gmail.com. This was a huge, huge win for this team. Again, much more on this game tomorrow.

Chad Styer – 17 points, 2 rebounds.

Kenny Randall – 10 points
Brandon Brison – 5 points
Taj Hammond – 3 points
Maurice Smith, Laronn Lee – 2 points each...
NOTE: two other players had two points each, but they aren't on the roster I have...sorry, I suck.
That's all for tonight. Back tomorrow with more hoops and some wrestling notes from the Bears' win over Central tonight.
Until then, you stay classy Elizabethtown.
