Fanatic Summation of the Lakewood vs. Plainfield game

Plainfield played a very good game. On a scale of 10, the Cards played a 9.4.
Lakewood feature one of the top players in the state. Jarrod Davis is being recruited by multiple Big East schools. Not to be out done, Georgetown, Villanova, Rutgers, Seton Hall, Maryland and a list of major D1 schools are after Tyrone Johnson. Johnson gave a great effort leading the cards to a 17 point victory. Justin Sears, Sekou Harris, and Jamal Lane (all sophomores) gave great efforts doing all the workmen work for the Cardinal victory.

The most impressive period for the Lubreski defensive minded Cardinals was the 3rd. After Jarrod Davis nearly outscored the entire Cardinals in the 2nd period, Lubreski put Tyrone Johnson on the talented sky walker Davis. Johnson responded by holding Davis to only 3 shot attempts and 2 points for the decisive 3rd period. Plainfield outscored Lakewood 11 – 4 during that stretch. They held the Piners to two field goals made.

The most disappointing period for the Cards was the 2nd. Jarrod Davis was impressive. His leaping ability, his accurate shooting from behind the arc, and his intimidating defense, blocking a couple of dunk attempts by the Cards was simply impressive. The Cards was outscored 12 – 10. Davis scored 10 point for the quarter.
