ST CATHERINE, Campion College, Camperdown High, and Kingston College are leaders in their respective zones of the 2019/2020 Inter-Secondary Schools Sports Association (ISSA) High School Boys Southern Basketball Conference (SBC) Under-16 and Under-19 Leagues at the halfway mark up to last Friday.

St Catherine High lead Zone ‘A’ of the Under-16 competition with 13 points, followed by Ardenne High, also on 13. Both have won six matches and lost one each. Wolmer’s Boys’ are third with 11 points, followed by Camperdown High (eight), Old Harbour High (eight), Calabar High (seven), and Meadowbrook High (six).

Zone ‘B’ has defending champions Campion College leading with 19 points from 10 games, followed by Jamaica College (17), Excelsior High (16), St George’s College (13), Kingston College (12), Vauxhall High (12), and St Jago High (eight).

Meanwhile, defending Under-19 champions Camperdown High lead Zone ‘A’ with 12 points, winning all six matches. They are followed by Old Harbour (11), Calabar (10), St Catherine (nine), Wolmer’s Boys’ (six), Ardenne High (six), and Meadowbrook High (six).

So far the teams that have hit the three-digit mark are defending Under-16 champions Campion College, who scored 111-22 against Bridgeport High, and 112-14 in the return game, and 110-26 against St Jago.

Only champions Camperdown and former champions Calabar have registered three-digit victories in the Under-19 League. Camperdown crushed Meadowbrook 102-17, while Calabar whipped Meadowbrook 121-45.
