With Verizon Fios1 televising the contest and student section that got louder by the quarter, Park View put together its best contest of the season with Jordan Owens and Ryan McCarter combining for 26 points.

Owens not only dropped 24 but his defense on BW super soph Myles Tate help hold the point guard to just eight points, 14 below his average. Philip Hardy led the Falcons with 14 off the bench and Yves Kaume scored 11.

Owens scored 10 in the first quarter as Park View staked a five point lead. Up by seven heading into the final quarter, the Patriots turned turnovers into transition baskets and seven PV players scored as they ran away with the 19-point win.
