The Dreyfoos basketball team won its second game of the season Monday night as strings sophomore Amare Davis scored 28 points and the Jaguars beat Donna Klein Jewish Academy 64-60 at Dreyfoos.

Dreyfoos came back from a 30-16 halftime deficit. Following a 28-1 run by Donna Klein, the team began to pick up their game.

“I wasn’t feeling good about it and I was wondering when we were going to wake up. We took a little nap there in the first half,” social studies teacher and basketball coach Jeffrey Stohr said. “We took from this just another win and we’re young so we’re still learning how to win. Sometimes you got to play to the level of the competition to figure out that a good team makes the other guys adjust to you and we’re not doing that yet, but we’re getting there.”

Davis took control during these last quarters of the game. He finished the night with six three-pointers and the Jaguars finally took the lead with five minutes left in the game.

“We were really upset at halftime and coach gave us a speech about how we need to pick it up and play better,” Davis said. “We turned it around and won the game by four. We took from this game confidence and a sense of teamwork which will help us moving forward.”

The Dreyfoos Jaguars will take the court again on Tuesday, Dec. 8 in a home game against Trinity Christian Academy.
