On Wednesday January 27th the Boys JV Basketball
team hosted NYMA and posted a 60-27 victory. In front of our home fans the team played its best game of
the season. Our aggressive defense
created turnovers and allowed us to jump out to an 18-2 lead early. One of the keys to our victory was
strong rebounding by the entire team.
The team is now 2-5 overall but on a 2 game win streak. Our next game is on the road Saturday
against Wooster who we hope to avenge our first game of the season loss to.
The victory was a team effort with everyone playing
well. Kao-Ting Hsu ‘12 led the team with 13 points, 10 rebounds, and 1
steal. Kevin Bogucki ’11 scored 11 points, grabbed 6 rebounds, had 2 steals
and 2 blocked shots. Qigao
Wang ’11 had another solid game in the
paint with 4 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocked shots and a steal. Our guards also played extremely well
this game. Bowen Luo ’10 scored 8 points, had a season high 7 steals,
grabbed 3 rebounds, and dished out 3 assists. TJ Jacobs ‘10
also dropped in 8 points, distributed the ball well with 5 assists and had a
steal. Zidong Liu ’10
pushed the tempo at the point and had 5 points, 2 assists, and 1 rebound. Zian Xu ’10 played his best all-around game of the season with
2 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists.
One of these assists was a behind the back no-look dime to Kao-Ting for
a restaurant quality SportsCenter top 10 highlight! Also playing well today was Tyler Knowles ‘10 who scored 3 points, pulled down 5 rebounds, and
had a nice blocked shot. Chris
Oliveri ‘10 also played his best game of the season scoring 6
points and pulling down 2 rebounds while playing tenacious defense. Wei Cui ’10 returned to the team this week and played tough
defense while recording 2 steals, 2 rebounds, and 1 beautiful assist for an
easy lay up. Chih-Hsiang
Ko ’11 deserves a coach’s award for the
hard work and the hustle he put forth in this game. Although he did not score, he grabbed 2 rebounds, 2 steals,
and dished out 1 assist. He played
great defense and hit the floor on every loose ball. The team is playing hard, having fun, and looking forward to
our next game. - Coach Mason
