 Elwood
High School senior Joel Moser powers the ball into the basket against
two Eastern defenders Friday night. Moser had 22 points and 14 rebounds
and shot 11-for-13 from the field. He did all that after returning from
the dressing room in the first quarter, where he was treated for a foot
injury. Brian Dockery photoPanthers hammer Comets By ED HAMILTON Remember that Elwood High School boys basketball team that went to Eastern back on Nov. 17 for a pre-season scrimmage, got manhandled by man-child Joey Price, turned the ball over 28 times and was outscored 52-36 by the Comets? Remember? Well, forget about ‘em. On Friday night, the maturing and improving Panthers did the manhandling with an 83-62 shredding of the Comet defense. What a difference two months can make. Sparked by the inside-outside combination of senior Joel Moser and sophomore Jared Bourff, Elwood shot a season-best 64 percent from the field. “It seemed like at times that every shot they took they made,” said Eastern Coach Kyle Bedwell. Moser and Bourff each scored a career-high 22 points and combined to shoot 19-for-27 from the field. Moser, who shot 11-for-13, also collected a career-best 14 rebounds. Throw in senior guard Korbin Buster’s 18 points and 10 assists and the Panther trio were more than Eastern bargained for. More on this story in the daily Elwood Call-Leader. |
