LONG OVERDUE


Legends of the Fall is on the way. The all-DigitalSports picks for boys and girls volleyball, field hockey and football will be released on the site this week.

Starting today will be boys volleyball, followed by girls volleyball, field hockey and then football.

I’ve been so busy covering basketball, and with the site acting up every now and then, I have always been in catch-up mode.

But now with exam week upon us, I’m going to concentrate on getting the standings for basketball updated – the system is back working correctly – and getting these well-deserving student-athletes honored.

Thanks for your patience.

804 ALL-STAR GAME

Fox Richmond and DigitalSports Richmond have teamed up to present the 804 All-Star Basketball Weekend, Friday, April 16 and Saturday, April 17.

Stay tuned to DigitalSports for more details, including another game added to the slate. You won’t want to miss this.

INTERACTIVE

Soon I will put up a list of games, and the viewers of DigitalSports will choose which one I go see.

You’ll be able to text or email me your choice. Whichever one wins out, I will go cover. That’s pretty cool, huh?

So anyone out there disappointed I haven’t seen their team, or wants me to come out again, this will be your shot.

I will try to spread the games out over the entire region with the most competitive matchups.

It will be any day of the week I do this, so you must stay tuned to the site.

Until next time, it’s your favorite reporter, signing off…

The Buzzer Beaters, 1/24/10

A high-school player would be lucky to hit one game-winning shot in a career.

Maybe a layup to break a tie, or a free throw to seal the deal.

But Jordan Boze prefers long distance and high odds.

Lee-Davis’ junior hit his second game-winning 3-point shot in three days, beating Patrick Henry with a trey ball on Wednesday, and Hanover Friday.

Same spot, similar play, sensational, unbelievable results.

“Their focus is unbelievable during the timeouts,” Lee-Davis coach Tripp Metzger said. “I told them after the game that is what won the game. They listen during the timeout.

“Tremendous job to execute a play and great job by Jordan Boze knocking it down.”

Boze had three treys in the Patrick Henry, 66-65 thriller, and five in the 55-54 win over Hanover, helping Lee-Davis to an 8-8 record.

So how many more 3-point, game-winners will Boze hit?

“If it comes up again, I guess there’s a chance I could make one,” said Boze.

Slamfest IX, 1/23/10: Benedictine 79, Jayem 76

One defensive stop.

Benedictine got it and sealed a 79-76 victory over John Marshall Saturday night in Slamfest IX’s mythical City Championship at VCU’s Siegel Center.

The Cadets held a 72-70 lead as time dwindled close to 90 seconds remaining. The Justices looked inside to Travis McKie, as his post ups were creating open men or layups for the Wake Forest recruit.

But Benedictine forced a turnover, a rare event in a game full of potent scorers.

The Cadets then went 7 of 8 from the charity stripe in the final 47 seconds for the win.

“I’m not happy with our defensive effort, but I thought offensively we’ve been preaching since we got blasted by Petersburg that we be unselfish,” Benedictine coach Sean McAloon said. “I think all of the kids passed up open shots for better shots. What you witnessed was [79] points. Just a great job moving the ball.”

Nearly every starter scored in double figures for Benedictine.

Slamfest MVP Michael Gbinije (9 for 15 from field) had 29 points, Trey Davis and Erik Moody (5 of 6) put in 15 each, and R.J. Price and Kevin Gill both scored nine.

McKie had a monster game, with 37 points and 15 rebounds, five on the offensive end, and shot 14 of 20 from the field.

Willie Mangum chipped in with 16 points, Tahir Little 12 as John Marshall found offensive consistency, but couldn’t douse Benedictine’s firepower.

“We know we can score with the best of them. But defense won the game,” McKie said. “They started having more defensive stops than we did. And we just couldn’t stop them.”

Benedictine 21 19 18 21 – 79
J. Marshall   15 22 19 20 – 76
Benedictine (16-4):
Moody 15, Davis 15, Gill 9, Price 9, Gbinije 29, Thurston 2, Tiller 0, Pilot 0. Totals: 24 23-28 79. 3-point goals: Moody 3, Gbinije 3, Davis, Gill.
John Marshall (14-4): Mangum 16, Little 12, McKie 37, Lampkin 3, Jenkins 0, Bullock 0, Payne 8, Mundin 0, Vaughan 0, Conyers 0. Totals: 27 16-22 76. 3-point goals: Mangum 2, McKie 2, Payne 2.

OTHER SLAMFEST IX SCORES
Atlantic Shores 68, Deep Run 62
* Brandon Britt poured in 30 points for AS. Jay Johnson led Deep Run with 15 points.
Phoebus 84, Dudley (N.C.) 76
