Grayson Golek was mugged by teammates and friends as he walked off the court Tuesday night. More than a few told the sweaty 6-foot-5 Garnet Valley sophomore directly, “You can do this.”
Maybe next time, Golek will listen.
The first thing he admits is that he sometimes gets in his own way. He knows what he is capable of doing on a basketball court, and at times he’s shown it.
Like Tuesday night, when he dropped a career-high 30 points on Bensalem in Garnet Valley’s 72-54 second-round PIAA District 1 Class 6A playoff game.
The No. 4-seeded Jaguars (18-6) will advance to quarterfinal round to play No. 5 seed Plymouth-Whitemarsh on Friday at 7 p.m., while Bensalem (15-10) will take on Neshaminy in the playback round.
