Jackson, Spiller power Booker T. against Jackson

 

Booker T. teammates Demetrius Jackson and Richie Spiller both acheived a double-double in a come-from-behind 73-59 win against Jackson in boys’ basketball Tuesday night.

The Tornadoes (5-0) remain undefeated, with Spiller putting up 25 points with 10 assists.

Jackson, meanwhile, grabbed 20 rebounds and scored 18 for the Tornadoes.

The Generals had a 33-28 lead over Booker T. going into the half, but that lead was short-lived as the Tornadoes retaliated by putting another 45 on the board and winning by 14.

Booker T. will be facing Gainesville Buchholz in the first round of the A-Rod Classic this Thursday at Columbus.
