The Knox Central Panthers (10-3) turned in a perfect week of basketball, going 3-0 after defeating Louisville Shawnee on Saturday, 55-37.
Gavin Chadwell continues to show he’s one of the front runners for the 13th Region Player of the Year award, finishing with another double-double (24 points, 20 rebounds) while Trevor Jordan scored eight points and finished with eight rebounds. Brayden Mills turned in an 11-point scoring effort.
“We finished up 3-0 this week playing great team ball,” Knox Central coach Madden Mitchell said. “I’m very proud of how we are getting more disciplined with ball handling and decision making.
“The championship game was a very physical, grind it out game, for three quarters and we needed that. We were up eight at halftime, up 10 after three quarters. We handled their pressure well, getting some easy buckets to extend the lead.”
