While Newman AAA might've come up empty on Saturday, Ryan Mela wasn't going down without a fight. Mela made a splash, scoring 21 points along with five rebounds. It looks like he has Putnam Vo-Tech/Sci-Tech's number considering he had a big game the last time he faced them, too.
Mela and Newman AAA won't have much time to rest: their next game is against Varsity Opponent at 11:00 a.m. on February 11th. Mela had to take a loss the last time the two teams duked it out, losing their February 7th matchup 83-78. Could another big game from him be enough to change the outcome this time?
