LeFlore Makes it 10 in a Row...Word of God Isn't Far Behind With 7 Straight...Murrah Takes a Slide

DeMarcus Cousins and the LeFlore Rattlers seem to be unstoppable. They have won 10 straight and boast a gaudy 23-2 record. They are ranked #9 in the nation according to MaxPreps and #13 according to USAToday. Last week Cousins and crew cleaned up 3 more wins against St. Paul's Episcopal, Duncanville, and Union.

Cousins straight owned the court as he posted a double-double in all three endeavors. He had 24 points and 11 boards in a 79-62 victory over St. Paul's Episcopal, 28 points and 14 boards in a 54-51 victory over previously ranked Duncanville, and 26 points and 15 boards in a 88-57 victory over Union. Cousins is now averaging 22.4ppg.

Word of God is supporting a streak of their own. They have now won 7 consecutive games as they beat Waccamaw Academy 75-46 last night. John Wall had 18 points and Bishop Daniels had 12. This makes the second straight game that WOG played without C.J. Leslie. We hope to have some information on this soon. Word of God is now 14-7.

Murrah has taken a little bit of a slide. They have lost two straight games at the hands of Melrose and NW Rankin. LaQuinton Ross scored 24 points against Rankin and continues to have a dominating sophomore campaign. He is averaging 23.2ppg.
