Jersey kicked off their season on the road on Monday and hit a couple of potholes. They fell 56-46 to the Roxana Shells. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Panthers of the 56-47 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in November of 2024.
Carter Kallal and Abe Kribs certainly did their best on Monday to avoid the loss. Kallal went 6-for-11 on his way to 13 points and five boards, while Kribs shot 54% from the field en route to 16 points and eight rebounds. The team also got some help courtesy of Andrew Koenig, who posted eight points.
Roxana's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Sean Maberry led the charge by almost dropping a double-double with 12 points and nine rebounds. What's more, Maberry posted two blocks, the most he's had since back in January. Keelan Crawford was another key player, putting up 14 points and five boards.
Coincidentally, Jersey and Roxana will both be playing Staunton the next time they take the court. The Shells will host the Bulldogs at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, while the Panthers will head out to face them at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday.
