A toast to Muschett High
MONTEGO BAY, St James — ALL-ISLAND champions Muschett High dominated last week’s awards ceremony of the ISSA/KFC Western Conference Girls’ Open Basketball Competition.
Loretta Gordon, captain of the Muschett team, was named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) in the national play-offs, as she picked up a handful of trophies at the ceremony held at the Montego Bay Cricket Club following the finals of the Boys’ Under-14 competition on Wednesday.
Gordon, also MVP for the western competition, picked up awards for the top scorer, most steals and most assists.
Three other Muschett players also picked up sectional awards — Stacian Facey won for top rebounder, Romian Smith won for making the most free throws while Dezsan McLaren scored the most three-pointers.
Herbert Morrison Technical’s Danielle Henry broke the Trelawny school’s monopoly when she won the award for most blocked shots.
David Peck of Herbert Morrison was named MVP for the boys’ league after he led his team to an overtime win against Muschett in 28-25 to take the Under-14 title.
