Games 68 & 69 - Home teams roll

Heritage HS at Brookwood HS
January 12 at Brookwood HS gymnasium in Snellville, GA

The Brookwood basketball teams had no problem picking up non-region victories over Heritage on Tuesday.

* N'dea Jones, an unsigned junior with plenty of high-Division I looks, had 28 points and 13 rebounds as the Brookwood girls won 51-29.

Jones, who I'd imagine will end up somewhere in the SEC or ACC, scored six of those points during an 11-0 run that turned a four-point deficit into a 17-10 lead early in the second quarter. The Broncos' cushion wouldn't fall below five points the rest of the night.

* Donald Parham was one of six in double figures in a 96-68 victory in the boys nightcap. It was the most points Brookwood has scored since also getting 96 in a win over Athens Christian in November, 2013.

The Gwinnett County school went just 7-19 a year ago, but thanks to excellent guard play, including Parham and Trae Higginbotham (16 points) the 12-5 Broncos' have nearly doubled their win total from last season & with a month still to go in the regular season.

* Let's also welcome newest Scoochie Smith All Star, Rawlings Aibangbee of Brookwood.
