Pleasure Ridge Park 96 Ballard 87

Final per the scoreboard.

Freshman Zee McCown scores 31 for PRP in win at Ballard.

Looks like the game was tied after a quarter, but PRP pretty well maintained a lead from there on.

Big time win for PRP!

PRP used a combination of 3-point shooting from freshman Zee McCown and getting to the rim for layups to get the best of the Bruins. With senior point guard James Taylor running the show, PRP was able to handle Ballard's press very effectively. Ballard is still without Rashad Bishop and was without Josh Minkins tonight (he is at a football all-star game this weekend), but I am not sure it would have made a difference tonight. PRP is well-coached and looked good.

This was my first chance to see Ballard's sophomore big man Maker Bar. There is much for him to learn, but he moves well and looks like a basketball player. He is going to be a good one.

Nice win for PRP

The LIT is going to be fun. 6-7 teams who could win it depending on the draw/matchups.

This another reason I feel like CovCath is likely the best team in the state.
