LATE SURGE GIVES EAST 93-80 WIN

The East ran off 20 straight points late in the second half en route to a 93-80 win over the West in the Virginia High School Coaches' Association all-star boys' basketball game Monday night at the Hampton Coliseum.

Percy White of William Monroe, the Group A Player of the Year, scored seven of his team-high 14 points during the run. East MVP Brett Harper of Kecoughtan added five points - and two thunderous dunks. Harper finished with 10 points.

Shawnte Hobson of Granby also scored 14 for the East.

West MVP Michael Martin of Martinsville scored 14. He had nine points in the second half as the West held the lead or trailed by just a few points until the last six minutes.

Laurel Park's Warwick Scott added 13 for the West.

Early production by Scott (nine), Derrick Hines of William Fleming (all seven of his points) and Parry McCluer's Michael McElroy (six of his 10) helped the West lead by as many as 18 points in the first half.

Among other Timesland players, Nick Varney of Glenvar and Dana Gibson of Northside each scored four.
