Balanced New Town Squad Breezes by Western Tech

Led by 14 points from junior Jerrod Lemon, the Titans had 10 players figure in the scoring and distanced themselves from the host Wolverines with a 22-5 second quarter advantage.

Two minutes into Thursday night’s contest between Western Tech and New Town, the Wolverines’ Andre Jackson canned a runner to put his squad up 4-2. That bucket would serve as Western Tech’s final lead of the evening. After that shot, the Titans outscored Western Tech 33-7 over the final 14 minutes of the first half—a prolonged run that included two separate 11-0 spurts—on the way to a dominating, 57-40 road victory. Junior forward Jerrod Lemon led New Town (14-4) with 14 points and senior Devonte Coleman chipped in with ten as the Titans poured in buckets, particularly in the first half, with a balanced offensive attack that saw ten players factor into the scoring on the night. In addition to that overall balance, New Town shared the ball …

With leading-scorer Devin Hebron out early due to a coach's decision, fresh faces fill void to topple Bulls, 47-43 Wednesday night.

Franklin High School had to rely on its supporting cast Wednesday night at home against Baltimore County opponent Hereford. The team's leading-scorer on the season, junior Devin Hebron, did not tally a point until the final three minutes of the game in the Indians' 47-43 victory. Hebron, who scored 25 points against No. 7 John Carroll earlier this week, entered the game for the first time with less than seven minutes to play in the first half, joining the contest when Franklin held a five-point lead. Benched in the first quarter due to a coach's decision, he was eager to make up for lost time, forcing off-balance shots and passes. He was even called for fouling Hereford's Joey Jones, who scored 27 points on the night, on a three point shot…
