Epic Duel on Thanksgiving Weekend! Ryan Campbell 19pts vs JJ Watson 20pts Plus Win



            Those who arrived at El Monte High School after Thanksgiving Day were able to witness two well round scorers in the battle between Crenshaw and St. John Bosco. JJ Watson, a 6’3 guard for the Bosco Braves has a promising future in basketball if he continues to put up numbers such as 20 points and above. Watson has an overall game that allows him to be a threat offensively. With an efficient jump shot, speed, and handles, Watson has the ability to score from outside and inside the perimeter. With this kind of game, he has the potential to be an unstoppable player. Despite of Bosco’s victory, the Braves were challenged by Ryan Campbell’s rebounding and scoring ability. Campbell’s 6’7 height allowed him to get second chance points for his team. This was difficult for the Braves due to their lack of height. This open window allowed Campbell to crash the boards with 7 rebounds, but he did not stop there. With a powerful game inside the perimeter, Campbell was able challenge Watson’s 20 points with 19 points as well.  Campbell nearly scored a double double that could’ve have made the difference between victory and defeat for the Crenshaw Cougars. With time winding down with a ten point deficit, the cougars were forced to foul the Braves and send them to the free throw line; however, the cougars could stop them defensively. The Braves pulled out with a victory. Footage of the Duel is below:
