PIKESVILLE-- On Tuesday night, January 13, the boys varsity basketball team lost by 11 to the visiting and defending state finalist, Randallstown Rams. The Panthers were led by Junior guard, Devohn Gilmore with 13 points. Gilmore has been the Panthers leading scorer all year, he currently averages 16.4 points per game. Seniors Freddie Sellers and Rasheed Salau showed leadership on the court. Sellers scored 11 points, and Salau, 2. Big man, Ian Lee was a beast on the boards, he added 4 points. Starting guard, Deondre Jackson hit his first two shots of the game, and ended it with 5 points. The Panthers in the third quarter led by 4, that was the most the Rams would let. At half time the score was tied, 24-24. But in the second half the Rams exploded, out scoring the Panthers in both the third and fourth quarters. The second half was owned by Pikesville's 6'4" Center, Jarell Cox. In the second half alone, Cox scored 10 points, with 8 of the 10 coming in the fourth quarter. Teams should beware of Jarell's hook shot, the Rams, had no awnser for him. At the final minutes, the Panthers kept fouling in hopes of scoring off the fouls. That didn't quiet work. The Rams made most of their free throws, sealing the deal for the Rams. The Rams leading scorers were Ryan Tyler (23) with 16 points, Malik Smalls (22) with 15, and Chaz Sharp (21) with 8. Randallstown shot 18 total field goals to the Panthers 20. Pikesville went 4 for 12 from the charity stripe. The final score was Pikesville 45, Randallstown 56. The Panthers look to get a "W" this Friday, January 16, at New Town High School at 7 p.m.
