1st Team All Efficiency Performance

Top Efficiency Performance of the 2009 – 2010 Season in a Plainfield Game -
1st Team All Efficiency Performance

#1 - St. Patrick – Senior Kyrie Irving – 6’3” {ER – 40}*
Kyrie put on a performance for the ages. Fans in attendance witnessed one of the best guards to ever come out of the Garden State. Kyrie dropped a game high 30 points. Kyrie shot 92% from below the arc (11 for 12), 100% from above the arc (2 for 2), garnished 5 steals, dropped off 3 assists, and 1 rejection while only committing 1 turnover.

#2 - Plainfield – Junior Tyrone Johnson – 6’3” {ER – 36}*
Johnson returned strong after a sub par performance against St. Pats. Johnson scored the highest efficiency rating breaking the season high rating set 2 days ago by the #1 player in the Nation, Michael Gilchrist {ER – 33}. Johnson dropped a season high 30 points and missed a double-double by 1 rebound. Johnson shot a blazing 88% from below the arc and 3 – 5 (60%) from above the arc.

#3 - Roselle Catholic– Sophomore Jameel Warney – 6’6” {ER – 36}
Warney is one of 3 Plainfield basketball studs that have earned Star Ledger Basketball Outstanding Performer of the week (others are Miles Davis of St. Peters Prep, and Tyrone Johnson). Warney’s outstanding performance also tied a season high efficiency rating (Tyrone Johnson). Warney showed why he earned that honor. Jameel scored a game high 24 points on 64% shooting and hitting 75% of his free throws. He earned a double-double by grabbing a game high 12 rebounds. Warney also had 2 steals, 2 rejections and 2 assists to take Plainfield to the brink of elimination.

#4 - St. Patrick – Junior Michael Gilchrist – 6’7” {ER – 33}*
Gilchrist showed that he is the best ball player in the nation. Gilchrist shot a perfect 9 – 9 from the floor. His quickness, leaping ability and agility is superior to most high school athletes. The most impressive thing about Mike is he is not even 90% healthy. Mike also grabbed 7 rebounds, had 3 steals, had 1 rejection, and dropped 1 assist. We should be seeing him on the NBA court in the near future.

#5 - Plainfield – Sophomore Justin Sears – 6’7” {ER – 29}
Justin is continuing to come up big so far in his first state playoff experience. Justin shot 50% from the floor scoring a team high 20 points but his other contributions were clutch. Sears grabbed a game high 14 rebounds, blocked a game high tying 2 shots (both in the final period), and had a game high 5 steals. His coast to coast dunk brought the Cardinal fanatics to their feet. This is Justin’s career high efficiency rating, and it came when the Cardinals needed it most.
