LAKELAND CHRISTIAN ACADEMY 55, OREGON-DAVIS 47
Jake Harmon had a night to remember as Lakeland Christian earned a big road win Friday night.
Harmon’s first three pointer of the night in the first quarter set the LCA all-time mark, giving him 200 for his career and bumped him past 2018 graduate Josh McDaniel for the honor. Harmon would go on to hit three more in the game, part of a 22-point night. Harmon also added four rebounds and three assists for good measure.
Landon Twombly would add a busy night for the Cougars with 14 points, five rebounds, five steals and four assists in a full plate. Trenton Parker tossed in nine points and Braxton Keller added three points, four rebounds, three steals and a block.
Garrett Weil paced the Bobcats with 20 points.
