JV Boys Basketball 🏀 fall short at Radford 50-32 Wednesday night

Getting more information about this contest will be a bit of a challenge but it will happen and when it does I will post it here.

The team returns to action Friday night at the Hillsville Middle School when they host the Knights of James River.

Sometimes I just have to laugh at my own level of dedication to things that I believe in. It dawned on me at 11:30 p.m. that if I wanted to know what happened with our JV Boys that I could use the site to watch the game from start to finish.

The game should be over by 1am but I will provide quarter by quarter recaps.

FIRST QUARTER :

CCHS jumped out to a 3-0 lead and the two teams took turns scoring with Isaiah Easter getting the last basket to give the lead at the break 11-9

SECOND QUARTER :

The effort was there throughout the second period for the Cavs but the ball just wouldn’t fall. Radford scored 24 unanswered points to start the frame but CCHS bounced back just before the half.

Jay Burnette made two free throws and Dane Leonard converted a back door cut for a lay-up to give the Cavaliers the final four points.

At the Break – Radford 33, CCHS 15

Cavaliers bounce back nicely, taking the 3rd quarter by a 9-6 margin. A 13-2 run crossed over the quarters.

Easter scored five straight at one point and Landen Puckett plus Burnette went 2 for 2 from the line to account for the Cavaliers points.

FOURTH QUARTER :

Easter adds six more and Leonard hits a pretty floater that pulled the Cavs to within 13 at 45-32 and the Bobcats close out the scoring with five free throws for a 50-32 final.

CCHS played the second half to a 17-17 draw and outscored Radford 21-17 after the deep run 🏃‍♂️ of 24-0 that proved too much to overcome.
