MULBERRY — Mulberry's talented duo of forward Michael Poole and center Travon Sampson combined for 37 points and 19 rebounds to lead the Panther boys basketball team past Lake Placid 55-43 in the Class 3A-District 10 semifinals on Friday night. The Green Dragons used a balanced offense, paced by Marcus Waugh's team-high eight points, and an aggressive defense to stay in the game in the first half. But Mulberry's physical full-court press forced numerous turnovers, which were converted into easy points as the No. 1- seeded Panthers cruised to the easy win to move into the finals against second-seeded Frostproof, which eliminated McKeel Academy 66-25 in Friday's other semifinal. ...more
