]]>In perhaps the biggest game in Chicago Curie High School history, they faced the nation's top player in the Class of 2014, 6'11 Jahlil Okafor and his loaded #1 Whitney Young HS team with their seasons on the line. But 6'9 Cliff Alexander and his Curie Condor teammates were ready for battle.
Jahlil Okafor and Cliff Alexander took turns thrilling the crowd at Argo HS (Summit, IL), but it was Okafor who won as #1 Whitney Young (27-3) came-from-behind 62-58 vs #9 Curie (19-8) in the Class 4A sectional semifinal.
Okafor finished with 13 points, three blocks and three rebounds.
Alexander scored 14, three blocks, and grabbed eight rebounds.
While the bigs battled, elite (top 60) juniors L.J. Peak (23 points) and Paul White (11 points) helped supply the offensive support Young needed.
Thanks to the coaches and players at Whitney Young and Curie High Schools. Thanks to everyone at Argo HS.

]]>The post 5’10 Elliott Cole Goes OFF for 63 Points in a game!! Nation’s TOP scorer! Pure shooter with Handles! (Official Ballislife Mix) appeared first on www.ebooksnet.com.
]]>Cole made 8-11 3-pointers, 13-16 free throws and finished with 10 assists. His previous high scoring total was 49 points.
According to the Chicago Sun Times and IHSA.org, it was the first time since 1991 (Chicago Harvard's Walter Simmons, 75 points) that at least 63 points have been recorded.
Earlier this season, wersus nationally-ranked Whitney Young HS, Cole was the sole focus of the Dolphins defense. He got off to a slow start, scoring just two points in the first quarter. That’s all Power House scored in the quarter too.
Then Cole put up seven in the second quarter, nine in the third and six in the fourth to finish with 24 points and four assists.
An academic qualifier, Chicago State has offered and Eastern Illinois, Northern Illinois, Illinois State, Arkansas-Little Rock, Western Michigan and Wyoming have all shown interest but expect the list to grow!
