PEDRO — For the Rock Hill Redmen seniors, this was the way to go out.
Kadin France had 10 points and 19 rebounds while Jake Blagg had 14 points and six assists to lead the Redmen to a 63-42 win over the St. Joseph Flyers on Tuesday in their final home game.
“I am really proud of our boys. The put together a complete game from beginning to end. It was a complete team effort with four kids in double figures,” said Rock Hill coach Gordy Collins.
“I am really proud of our seniors Kadin, Jake and Cameron (Donohue). Each stepped up tonight to lead us.”
Logan Hankins led the Redmen with 17 points and Owen Hankins scored 10. The Redmen had 40 rebounds as a team led by France with 19 as he recorded career rebound No. 500.
