 Top two teams in Section 8A Boys basketball all season long. Castlegbina and Ada Bore, the two have combined for a 51-5 record, have been on this collision course since December. Well, that'll finally end tonight. The Panthers, the top seed in the East. The Cougars best in the West. Winner moves on to state. Early on, Castlegbina set the tone. Ethan Brown to Jarell Jacobs. Hoop and the Harm gives them their first lead of the game. Then later, their 1,000-point score. Noah Delapaz goes to work, pulls up baseline, knocks down the J-11-6 Panthers lead. They got huge minutes from their bench. First half, Michael Reyes for three. The advantage is up to nine. They're just clicking from the start. Ethan Brown spots some, knocks down a triple, makes the lead even larger. Pick your poison against this team. They can beat you from everywhere. Gauru Washington scores 21-12. They lead then. This is what they do best in transition. Washington to Antonio Brown for the bunny. Sit back and enjoy. They're right before the break. The world kept spreading. Miguel Reyes, pure from downtown. And for the first time since 2010, Castlegbina is heading back to the state tournament. They're your Section 8A champs. They go on to win 66 to 53.
