 Horizon Academy Defeats DAVA Behind Whitfield, Pinson; 

Faces Focus Learning Academy Tonight 

By Deon Cash

Horizon Science Academy picked up their 2nd win on the season and first at home after a big home win over Dayton Athletic Vocational Academy (DAVA) last week.

It was a 2-man show for the Hawks as they won 65-50 after a frenetic 2nd half.

Horizon would jump out to a 12-0 lead with a barrage of buckets and defensive stops that had DAVA stumbling. 

Jay'Mal Whifield led all scorers with 28, while Marcus Pinson dropped 4 3's and had double figures as well.

Whitfield was unstoppable early and late, which keyed the Hawks early run and helped calm the team down

DAVA would make a run in the 2nd half, cutting the lead to single digits, and coming within a couple of possessions of making the game a close finish.

However Whifield and Pinson dominated the 4th quarter, to help seize the win. 

Horizon Head Coach Jessie Watts was pleased with the win, as his team showed desire and grit from the start.
