Delaney: Camden's Smith reaches milestone
It took a career high from standout swingman Ashley Roser to hold off a very good Holland Patent girls basketball team Tuesday. And with the Tri Valley League victory, Blue Devils' coach Jerry Smith earned his 200th career victory.
Roser, who is closing in on 1,000 career rebounds to go with 1,200-plus career points, scored 37 points and grabbed 18 rebounds in Camden's 78-69 win. Lindsay Jones added 22 points on five 3-pointers for Camden (5-2 TVL, 7-2 overall). Jones also had four assists and five steals.
"It makes me feel I was blessed with great athletes," said Smith, in his 19th season. "In the TVL, 200 wins means a lot because it's a tough conference."
The win did not come easily. Not by a long stretch. The much improved Golden Knights have five players in double figures. Nicole Dupuis scored 17 points and sisters Karlene and Allyson Freiermuth each had a double-double.
"That is the best Holland Patent team I've seen in 20 years," Smith said. "The best I've seen was tonight. We were running scared."
