After scoring 16 unanswered points in the first quarter, the Franklin Middle School boys’ basketball team coasted to a 38-27 win over Branchburg Central Middle School on Jan. 24.
Franklin increased that lead to 31-5 at the half.
But the team was only able to score 7 points in the second half, while Branchburg netted 22 – many of which were 3-pointers.
Coach Michael Harris said after the game that his team “had too many turnovers.”
“I’m happy with the win,” he said, “but we could have played a little better.”
“We could have stepped up more with the guys who got in for most of the game,” Harris said.
Harris praised the “outstanding shooting of Dominic Wright, Antonio Scott, and Chris Destin,” and the “excellent rebounding of Ibraham Kamara.”
With the win, the team improves to a 4-9 record.
