Berkeley Springs Freshmen boys end season 12-4

The freshmen boys basketball team finished their season with a 52-18 win over the visiting St. James Saints. Due to the suffocating defense the Indians were up 14-2 after one quarter of play and 28-9 at the half time by Brandon McCumbee’s 15 first half points.

The second half wasn’t any better for the Saints they were limited to nine second half points to the Tribes 24.

“It was a great season,” Coach Mike Burks said. “They’re a great group of kids to coach and fun to be around. They got three more years of basketball left, ‘the skies the limit for them.’ What I like about them is that sometimes you have to throw them out of the gym to go home,” said the coach.

Leading scores for the tribe were McCumbee 23 points, five three’s and four rebounds one assist; Cameron Johnson, seven points, 10 rebounds and two assist; Chris Kees, six points, 10 rebounds and two assists; Joe Clark, Ben Soloman, Kyle Harden and Cory Osburn each had four.
