Boys Basketball: Mason honors records, breaks one in finale victory
ERIE − On a night when Erie Mason honored graduates Joe and Mary Liedel as the Monroe County Region's career scoring leaders, one Liedel record was taken away.
Mason's Carson Brown hit 11 3-pointers to break Joe Liedel's record of 10 in a single game and lead the Eagles to a 69-26 win over Dearborn Advanced Tech Thursday night.
Brown finished with 33 points − all in the first half − to stake the Eagles to a 55-13 lead at the intermission. He played just 2 minutes in the second half as Mason rested its starters.
"With all the energy and excitement surrounding the evening, it was Carson Brown who stole the show," Mason coach Kevin Skaggs said. "(He) was 11-for-15 from 3-point range."
Alex Langenderfer hit three more 3-pointers and scored 11 first-half points. Eight other Eagles added at least 1 point as Mason finished the regular season 16-6 overall.
The Eagles' junior varsity team ended their 16-6 season with a 68-38 victory. Logan Goodin (17 points), Karter Stubleski (14), Zach Worden (12), and Anthony Crooks (10) led Mason.
