Centerville’s Crawford takes center stage
Centerville High School unveiled another emerging player in its talented and deep boys basketball lineup Friday, Jan. 9, at Wayne.
Pat Crawford, take a bow.
The 6-foot junior guard nailed 9-of-13 shots for 18 points in leading the Elks to a 57-52 victory in a Greater Western Ohio Conference Central Division showdown.
How’d he do it?
Start with plenty of defensive attention on the Elks’ two big men: 6-10 Matt Kavanaugh (14 points, 10 rebounds) and wide-body Adam Replogle (10 points). That left Crawford all but free outside, and he made the Warriors pay.
This won’t be the last time teams focus most of their attention on Centerville’s front line. But with Crawford and others stepping up, that’s a winning combination for the Elks (7-1). Travis Trice led Wayne (6-2) with 21 points.
Can’t beat that
Alter and Chaminade Julienne settled their Greater Catholic League North fates at the Nutter Center. Ryan Siggins scored 22 points, and Max Zukowitz added 13 in pacing the Knights to a 57-51 victory. Ryan Bass had 22 points for the Eagles and Joe Staley 15.
They’re making their points
• For those on the Juwan Staten watch, the Marshall junior hit Belmont up for a game-high 22 points in an 86-49 beatdown.
• Dwayne Sanders scored 13 points and Adreian Payne was good for 10 as Jefferson romped 74-38 over Xenia Christian.
Buchtel staying put
Dunbar was to have hosted Akron Buchtel today, Jan. 10. However, Buchtel officials nixed the long trip because of worsening weather forecasts. No makeup date has been announced.
Marshall girls fall, CJ on deck
Detroit Country Day began its road trip with a 43-39 defeat of Marshall on Friday. Today, Saturday, Jan. 10, DCD is at CJ at 2:30 p.m. Country Day is the defending Michigan Class B state champion.
