West, Parkland extend JV losing streak 

The Davie JV boys basketball team’s slump has overshadowed quite a scoring run by CJ Coleman, who has put up 76 points over four games.

The War Eagles lost 66-58 at West Forsyth. The Titans’ 23-10 run in the third quarter was the killer, after Davie trailed by one at halftime.

The Davie points came from Coleman (19), Cam Knox (10), Jake Runge (6), Colson Sink (6), Brady Vallance (5), Aiden Horton (5), Ben Reid (4), Jayden Warren (2) and Ian Patton (1).

The next game at Parkland was a major shocker. The Mustangs won 64-54 after losing to Davie by 33 in the first meeting. They stretched a 28-26 halftime lead to 48-35 in the third and dealt Davie (9-9, 3-8 CPC) its fifth straight loss.

Coleman had 22 in defeat, giving him a 19 average across four games. Vallance had 10, Reid 6, George Sakai 4, Knox 4, Runge 4, Warren 2 and Horton 2.
