CUMBERLAND — Casey Roberts scored a game-high 31 points to lead five Allegany players in double figures as the Campers outlasted Keyser 97-74 Thursday night at Campobello.

The Campers’ Cody Ellsworth scored 20 points with eight baskets and 3-of-5 from the line. Jordan Grady finished with 12 points and Adam Boor and Justin Hymes each scored 10.

Keyser was paced by Preston Hartman’s 21 points and Jeremy Green’s 19. Wes Washington and Matt Wilmer each finished with 12 points.

Allegany’s Grady just missed his typical double-double game with his team-leading nine rebounds. He also had six assists. Hymes had eight rebounds.

Keyser won the jayvee game, 57-54, behind Chris Halbritter’s 14 points. R.C. Pratt scored 13 and Ethan LaRue had 11. Allegany was led by Jake Shade’s game-high 22 points. Steffen Bonnett scored 14 and Brady Ellsworth had 12.
