Spencerport came from behind to defeat host Brockport in the first round before falling to Batavia in the championship at the annual Doug Westcott Memorial Boys Basketball Tournament.

In the semi-finals, Brockport led at the end of the first half and by one after the third before the Rangers went on an 8-0 run on a three-pointer by Michael Deback, a field goal and free throw from Devon Pascoe and a put-back by Brandon Marshall in the fourth to take the lead for good.

Deback and Pascoe both hit free throws in the final minute to secure the victory.

Brockport’s Donald Cook led all scorers with 23 points with four three-pointers while Denzel Knight had 14 rebounds with nine points and Andrew Zimmer added 19 points.

Jacob O’Connell led the Rangers in scoring with 18 points, Pascoe had a double-double with 16 points and 12 rebounds, Deback added 11 points and Shawn Martin led with eight assists.

In the championship game, Batavia held Spencerport without a point in the second quarter to take a 13 point halftime lead and never looked back. Pascoe had 12 points and Martin added eight in the loss.

Brockport picked up their second win of the season defeating Rochester Early College International 66-45 in the third place game led by Cody Gould’s 28 points. Zimmer had 11 points while Knight and Jordan Blocker added ten points each.

Spencerport, who had won the previous two Westcott titles, has finished either first or second for the last four consecutive years. They fell to 4-4.
