The Johnston boys basketball team is continuing to surge in its Division II title defense this winter as it picked up a 67-42 win over Hope then a 66-62 win over South Kingstown last week. The Panthers improved to 8-0 with the wins.
Brandon Testa stayed hot this winter as he emerges as one of the division’s best scorers as he led the Panthers with 20 points in the win over Hope. Three other Panthers reached double figures, as Neari Vasquez racked up 13 points, Jayden Testa 13 and Mike Carlino 10.
Vasquez had a huge outing against the visiting Rebels last weekend, leading the way with 29 points scored. Jayden Testa finished with 18 points, 16 coming in the first half to help propel the Johnston offense.
The Panthers were set to take on Middletown in a championship rematch on Tuesday, but the game was postponed due to weather. Johnston will next face Toll Gate at home on Thursday.
