Allen Dominates Neosho on the Road

The Allen Men's Basketball team stayed a perfect 4-0 in KJCCC action, and improved to 15-4 on the season with a 86-65 win over rival Neosho County. The two teams traded baskets in the early going, but Allen was able to close the first half on a mini run and led 40-32 at the break.

In the second half the Red Devils would extend the lead to double figures and never looked back. Midway through the half Allen forced several Neosho turnovers which led to run out points. Zabriel Boozer capped off the Allen run with a run out dunk to push Allen's lead to 20 points.

Allen would convert at the free-throw line in the final few minutes to fend off any Neosho County run. Allen had 5 players finish the game in double figures as Ed Wright led the way with 17 points on 7-17 from the floor. Ahmed Mahgoub and Cedric Rollerson each scored 13 points. Zabriel Boozer had several timely baskets for Allen and finished with 11 points, and Nick Whittick finished the game with 10 points.

Allen will return home Wednesday for a home matchup against Fort Scott Community College at 8:00 pm.
