Crestwood gets past West Scranton

West Scranton and Crestwood were in a tightly contested first quarter and most of the people at Wyoming Area High School thought it would stay the same for most of the game. Lewin Fernandez would hit 3 three pointers to tie the game at 11 and just before the buzzer, Jake Zaleski would hit a layup to give the Comets the lead at the end of the first quarter. With the Comets leading by 2, they would go on an 8-0 run and would lead 25-18 at halftime.
The Comets defense would step up in the second half. They only allowed a single basket in the third quarter and would lead 38-23 at the end of the third quarter. The Comets would cruise for a 45-32 victory in their District 2 5A Quaterfinal matchup. The Comets' Camden Boris led all scorers with 13 points and Ryan Petrosky followed with 12. Lewin Fernandez scored 12 points for West Scranton and Cayden Merrifield followed with six. The Comets will advance to the District 2 5A Semifinals and will play Wallenpaupack on Friday at a site and time to be determined.

Thoughts on the game: Camden Boris had a good game for the Comets with 13 points and Ryan Petrosky also played well and he had 12 points. The Comets defense was impressive in the third quarter. Only gave up two points during the quarter. For West Scranton, Lewin Fernandez had a good game with 12 points.
