Holy Cross commit and Harrisburg senior Jahaad Proctor scored 28 points in Friday’s early game, then dropped in 20 as Team PA claimed Game 2.
The 6-3 Proctor is averaging nearly 25 points per game thus far.
Susquehanna Twp. senior Joe Marshall and recent Cedar Crest grad Andrew Eudy split 18 points in the loss to Inland. Bishop McDevitt’s Milik Gantz backed Proctor in the nightcap by collecting 16 points, while Eudy wound up with 11.
