By David Rogers. BOONE, N.C. — Broad participation in the scoring column produced a winning outcome for Watauga’s junior varsity men’s basketball team on Dec. 6, defeating A C Reynolds (Asheville), 47-43 in Lentz Eggers Gym.
Eli Bishop and Orin Ellis paced the Pioneers with nine and seven points, respectively, with nine other players contributing to the offensive output.
J. Pavone scored a game-high 12 points for the visiting Rockets while teammate J. Bartley added 10, but the broad amount of scoring across the Pioneers’ roster more than offset the concentrated ACR output.
The Pioneers had a 25-12 lead by intermission and led 35-26 at the end of the third quarter.
