Coudersport 64, Brookville 56
BROOKVILLE — Owen Chambers poured in a game-high 29 and the Falcons used a 26-6 explosion in the third quarter to down Brookville in a comeback non-league victory.
Trailing 29-28 at the half, Coudersport’s high-powered offense finally got going courtesy of some aggressive defense to propel that big run in the third quarter.
“We extended our defense and it got us some turnovers,” Coudy coach Brian Furman said. “(Hayden) Keck caused a little havoc with some deflections and we got some turnovers and scores from there.”
Keck netted seven points and added six rebounds for the Falcons (15-1), while Travis Gleason nearly picked up a double-double with 10 rebounds and seven points.
Chambers, meanwhile, followed up from breaking his school’s all-time points record Monday by sinking nine field goals and going 9-of-10 from the free-throw line for another dominant scoring night against Brookville.
Aaron Park had a team-high 14 for the Raiders, which fell to 11-7 on the season.

Elk Catholic 69, Sheffield 28
ST. MARYS — Twelve players put points on the board for unbeaten Elk Catholic on Friday, but Crusaders head coach Aaron Straub isn’t about to back off when it comes to keeping his team on their toes.
Following a 69-28 triumph over Sheffield for his club’s 18th straight win, Straub commented, “After 18 games our goals are still in front of us. It’s going to take discipline, self sacrifice and a renewed commitment to excellence if we are going to continue to improve and keep moving forward.”
The Crusaders actually moved forward pretty quickly against the Wolverines, jumping out to a 24-6 lead by the end of the first quarter, a 49-12 advantage at the half and a 40-point, 58-18 lead headed into the final eight minutes of play.
Leading ECC’s charge on offense were Ben Hoffman with 14 points and Brady Schneider with 13 tallies.
For Sheffield, Jake Vinopal scored 10 points.
