Update: Sea-gull did lose their composure through the game.  Not a shock if you watch their coach sometime.  They had a starter tossed who must now also sit out two games.  The game was filled with technical fouls etc. but one shining star emerged...

quote:
And most of those possessions ran through senior point guard Darius Thompson; Playing in his first game since he committed to Vanderbilt over the weekend, Thompson erupted for a career-high 38 points and had 11 assists. He was 7-of-11 from the 3-point line.

“Darius Thompson is a special player, who is going to raise his game in big games,” Wortman said: “That’s what you saw (Tuesday). You saw what a Mr. Basketball looks like tonight, not only with his play but how he led his team and composed his team.

“It was just a Mr. Basketball like effort;” Thompson, a 6-foot-4 point guard, broke former Blackman standout Isaiah Phillips’ career assist record in the contest - he now has 386.

So Darius played a direct role in a minimum of 60 of Blackman's 86 points...that's pretty amazing, especially considering high school games are only 32 minutes long.
