Annual alumni game becomes a shoot-out

Bookmark and Share

Guthrie boys head basketball coach Pete Papahronis stresses team defense all the time. Its a good thing he kept his distance from the annual Guthrie alumni basketball game Sunday evening.

The odd year BlueJay graduates jumped out to a 73-53 halftime lead and held on late in the fourth quarter to secure a 148-145 win in front of the well attended game. All proceeds go to the GHS basketball program.

The annual bragging rights of scoring the most points goes to Keaton Callins and Kressy Davis. Callins scored a game high 32 points, including 18 from beyond the arc, and Davis led the even years with 21. Darryl Knight chipped in with 20 points for the victors while BJ McDonald added 19 for the even years team.

The highlight of the night easily belong to Chaunsey Dumas. Justin Stevenson penetrated  into the paint and lost the ball from behind and went straight up where Dumas grabbed it, well above the rim, and flushed it for a gym erupting two-hand slam. 

In total, 29 players played in the annual game that is played the day after Christmas.
