Avon making some noise in the WSC

Heading into Friday night, the Avon boys basketball team was sitting at .500 and staring at back-to-back road games against Bay and North Ridgeville, considered by many as the top two teams in West Shore conference.

The Eagles responded with two huge wins. On Friday night Avon beat Bay 78-70 thanks to 31 points from R.J. Kauffman. Avon would score 26 first quarter points and then survive a late Rocket run to hand Bay their first WSC loss.

On Tuesday night, Avon defeated North Ridgeville 54-43. Kauffman was again the hero. He scored 24 points and was 11 of 12 from the line. Sophomore Claude Gray supported him with 18 points and 13 rebounds.

The Eagles are now 8-6 but more importantly 6-2 in the WSC, only one game behind Bay.
