Boys’ basketball team 16-1 after rugged win over Charlottesville

The Fluco boys basketball team won an extremely physical battle with the Black Knights from Charlottesville on Tuesday (Jan.24). The Flucos went into the fourth quarter with a one point lead over their traditional Jefferson District rival. Senior guard Ya Ya Anderson opened the quarter with a pretty baseline drive to put the Flucos up by three. Senior post player Jake Smith then hit a lay-up on a fast break and was fouled. Smith converted the free throw for an old fashioned three point play and the Flucos led by six 44-38. Another old fashion three point play by senior post player Taylor Lintecum, and a driving lay-up by Anderson gave the Flucos their biggest lead at 49-40, midway through the final quarter. The final score was 52-49.
