Westview senior Jacob Lloyd lit up the Tomcats for 52 points to propel the Chargers to a 92-84 win. The Lady Chargers gave up a fourth-quarter lead and fell, 45-40, to the Haywood girls in the early game. For his 52 points, Lloyd scored from all over the court in what was, according to WHS head coach J.B. Suiter, a single-game scoring record for the Chargers. Lloyd connected on 22-of-24 shots from the free-throw line and drilled six shots from behind the 3-point arch while also scoring off the dribble. Lloyd got help from Javier Gordon with 13 points and 11 from Antonio Hogard. Westview led 21-18 after a quarter and 48-43 at halftime. The Chargers added six points to their cushion in the third to carry a 75-64 lead into the fourth frame. The win improves the WHS boys to 11-0 overall and 5-0 in District 13-2A. The WHS boys will next play in the 46th Annual Martin Lions Club Christmas Tournament on Dec. 28. In the girls game, the Lady Chargers were ahead 35-26 heading into the fourth quarter, but things fell apart in the final stanza. The Lady Tomcats outscored Westview 19-5 in the fourth to win, 45-40.
