Darius George scored 33 points and had an incredible second quarter as Lee built an 18 point lead by halftime. He was hitting three after three in the 2nd. Lee went on to cruise to a 61-49 win. The Leemen are now 5-4 and will play Harrisonburg and Stuarts Draft on Friday and Saturday.

His range and efficiency behind the line has really impressed me thus far. The other night against the Australian team, he was on fire from behind the arc and sounds like it was the same last night. I missed last night's game. I really liked the way Jarvis and Jaden played the other night vs the Energy as well. There is so much potential with this team IMO, and if they can get the wheels churning, I think they will be a very good team. When they hit the 3 game stretch vs Spotswood/Amherst/Waynesboro later this month, that should tell us a whole lot about this team going into the tourney. That isn't overlooking anyone, I'm just curious to see how they matchup in those 3 games late in the season rather than early. I don't take a whole lot from early season games.
 
Keith I agree.I think Lee is going to be a final four contender and still believe that. They have played one of the toughest schedules...if not the toughest in 2A. Just recently they had a stretch of Spotswood, Waynesboro, Armstrong, and Loudoun Valley. All of those teams are contenders and above the 2A level.

George is fun to watch. The kid can score inside, Throw down some monster dunks, and then be deadly from three. As Lee develops and gets better chemistry moving forward they will be a force. I think they are at the top of C-36 with Page County being there with them at the moment. I think Martinsville is probably the only lock as far as a final four favorite this season in 2A. There are a bunch of teams that can get there. George Mason and Madison County have been impressive too.

Lee will be by February one of those teams that you don't want to see on your side of the bracket. Lee's 5-4 record is very deceiving considering who all they've played. Harrisonburg and Stuarts Draft should be interesting on back to back nights for Lee. Both like to run and the Draft likes to fly lol. So...Lee could be challenges in that aspect. Also Harrisonburg always seems to give Lee fits.

If Jarvis and Jayden can get going more consistently that will open it up even more for George. I like Brown at the gaurd....so the pieces are certainly there for this years Leemen!
