Charters Valley uses Johnstown's “Raue” shooting evening that accuses the Piaa semi -final

The Charters Valley likes it when an opponent misses the shot of an opponent, and Johnstown gave the Colts many chances on Friday evening.

The District 6-Champion fought from the 3-point range and missed 24 of its first 25 attempts from beyond the arch, empty possessions, the Chartiere Valley to a 58-38 victory in a quarter-finals of the Piaa class 5a in Norwin.

The WPIAL Champion Colts let the shootings lead from start to finish.

“It feels good for us because we have the opportunity to push the ball to the other end,” said Julian Semplice, CV junior Julian Semplice. “We feed on this energy – play quickly, play quickly – and she played to our advantage.”

The Colts withdrew with a 13: 2 run to start the fourth quarter.

Jayden Davis headed Chartiers Valley (26-3) with 19 points, Semplice had 17 and Logan Helfrick added 10.

Johnstown (26-2) is usually a good 3-point shooting team and has achieved an average of 11 or 12 brands per game, said Trojan coach Ryan Durham. But this time his team went 3 for 29 from beyond the arch and was only strengthened in the fourth quarter by a few late 3 Series.

The Charters Valley went 6 for 9 from the 3-point range and shot a total of 57% (22 for 37).

“Basketball is sometimes that way,” said Durham. “Sometimes it only depends on brands and misses. Boy, we had a hard night shots. “

Johnstown shot 26% from the field.

Two players made 35 from Johnstowns 38 points. Junior Amire Robinson scored 19 points and Senior Donte Tisinger added 16. Four teammates together were 1 for 17 shots all the trials.

“We have controversial and tried to make everything as difficult as possible (Robinson and Tisinger) because we know that they are good players,” said Corey Dotchin, coach of Chartier Valley in the first year. “I and my coaching team saw enough film and we identified people we thought that they were not consistent shooters. This has included in our schedule. “

Tisinger, a recruit from Boston University, went 5 for 20 shots, including 2 for 10 from a 3-point range. Robinson went 7 for 13 total and 0 for 2 from beyond the arch.

Both are 6-foot 3 goal shooters.

“Obviously these two are really good players, so we had to have additional help with them,” said Davis. “We knew that we had to communicate at this end of the soil and to fly around the conclusions.”

Chartiere Valley had at least one point.

After a quarter 17-10, 29-18, the Colts led to half and 39-30 after three. Their lead had dropped to four points at the beginning of the second quarter, but they were back in the break during the break.

Johnstown was held goalless for the last four minutes of the first half. The Chartiere Valley closed half with a 3-point from Helfrick and a Layup from Semplice in the last 36 seconds to lead around 11.

“If shots do not enter and the score fluctuates of six to ten (points), coach Dotchin does a good job to control the clock,” said Durham. “When you are down and no shots hit, they reduce the game well.”
