Boys Top 20: No. 4 Sac drills No. 7 Kennedy for Metro title

Aaron Cameron had 21 points, including six three-pointers, Joseph Barnes added 10 points and nine rebounds and the freshman trio of Christian Terrell, Devin Young and Andrew Williams combined for 17 points and 13 rebounds as No. 4 Sacramento throttled No. 7 Kennedy 73-42 in the Metro Conference boys basketball showdown tonight in Oak Park.

Sacramento led 19-12 after one quarter, 40-17 at halftime and 56-27 after three quarters.

Sacramento (20-6, 12-1) and Kennedy (16-9, 11-2) came into the game with 11-1 league records, and Kennedy led 1-0 in the head-to-head series after beating the Dragons 66-59 on Jan. 18 in Greenhaven.

With a co-championship already assured, the Dragons can lock up an eighth outright league championship in nine seasons with a win Tuesday against visiting McClatchy.

Here are some rules of the road:

• Keep your comments civil. Don't insult one another or the subjects of our articles. If you think a comment violates our guidelines click the "report abuse" button to notify the moderators. Responding to the comment will only encourage bad behavior.

• Don't use profanities, vulgarities or hate speech. This is a general interest news site. Sometimes, there are children present. Don't say anything in a way you wouldn't want your own child to hear.

• Do not attack other users; focus your comments on issues, not individuals.

• Stay on topic. Only post comments relevant to the article at hand. If you want to discuss an issue with a specific user, click on his profile name and send him a direct message.

• Do not copy and paste outside material into the comment box.

• Don't repeat the same comment over and over. We heard you the first time.

• Do not use the commenting system for advertising. That's spam and it isn't allowed.

• Don't use all capital letters. That's akin to yelling and not appreciated by the audience.
