High school boy’s hoops are heating up in North Central Florida as regional semifinal games commence on Tuesday night. Notably, in Class 1A, the defending state champion Hawthorne Hornets (13-9) will travel 60 miles south to Wildwood to take on the Wildcats (19-7).
A Tough Road Test for the Hornets
When Hawthorne head coach Greg Bowie joined Sport Scene with Steve Russell on Monday, he spoke highly of Wildwood.
The Wildcats’ athleticism begins with senior forwards Alfred Corbin (6’3″) and Joe Poyser (6’4″). Each lead the team in scoring, averaging just over 15 points per game. The lengthy Poyser hounds the boards, too, as he nabs a team-leading 9.1 rebounds per game.
