Game MPSSAA Class 3A Boys Basketball Regional of round Round 1

On Friday, February 28th, The Magruder Colonels stepped their game up against Watkins Mill as it was the first round of PLAYOFFS!! The Boys Varsity game had everyone at the edge of their seats as previously in regular season, the Colonels came up short to Watkins Mill. As intense as the game was, everything went down to the wire in the 4th quarter. Many seem to doubt Watkins Mill for their potential, but this year they held up a strong fight against the Colonels. Captain Joy Dovy says,” Watkins mill is so much better then they were in previous years with two good players.” One of these players being Senior Hassan Nazir, who also achieved 1,000 career points in his entire highschool career. The Colonels fell short to the Wolverines in Regular Season, but what was the difference between the two games that led them to success? Joy Dovy explains,” The difference between our two games in the regular season and playoffs is that we played with energy and intensity the entire game in the playoffs which kept us in the lead for the whole game.” Tommorow, March 4th 2025, the Colonels compete against the Sherwood Warriors as their second round of playoffs, We shall see what the Colonels bring to the game and hopefully bag the next win !!
