Reading 57 Wilson 42

The Reading Red Knights continued their perfect season with a big win over Wilson tonight in West Lawn. Here are my thoughts on tonight's game:

1. The win tonight said a lot about the growth, experience, leadership and toughness of this team. It showed once again we can play at any tempo and be successful. There were a lot of different junctures in this game where past teams would have had problems but this team kept fighting tonight and really got the job done.
2. Jermaine Jackson had a great game tonight with 15 points and 9 boards. Wilson didn't have any answer for him down low. It is fitting he had his best game against Wilson in what could be his last game against the Bulldogs.
3. Jordan Burdine led all scorers tonight with 19 points. He played an all around great game and attacked the basket very well.
4. I love how we got great minutes from the bench tonight. I really believe that when we go to the bench our defense doesn't get worse. I heard some people complaining when they brought Cook into the game. Folks, I think we should stop expecting Cook to be an offensive force out there. He is going to give you toughness, rebounding, and a big body down low. When he was in the game tonight I thought Demrick gave excellent minutes out there.
5. Memo to the BCIAA: When Reading and Wilson play its a big game so could you please get your 1st team crew to do the game.
6. For as inconsistent as the officiating was tonight this team doesn't worry about that and they just play through what ever comes their way. Its almost as they let us fans worry about that.
7. We now will face a talented York High team tomorrow at Harrisburg High. This game will tell us more about this team. The good thing is that they will be coming off a Friday night game as well. I don't think this game took a lot out of the squad but we will truly find out tomorrow what is left in the tank. The best thing for us is playing in the final game tomorrow.
8. It sounds strange to say but the two toughest games left on our schedule are against teams from York county.
