Boys vs. Long

The Indians improved to 12-4 on the season with a decisive 49-39 victory over the Long County Blue Tide in a non-region basketball contest. The Indians showcased a balanced and relentless performance, particularly on defense, to secure the win.

Jayon Coleman was the standout player for Vidalia, scoring an impressive 29 points to lead his team. His scoring ability was crucial throughout the game, as he consistently found ways to break down Long County’s defense. Rashad Brown chipped in 11 points.

While Coleman provided the offensive spark, the Indians’ defense was a key factor in the win. Vidalia’s players were tenacious, keeping pressure on the Blue Tide from start to finish.

The inside presence of DJ Wallace, Jamorion Phillips, and Josh Farmer was dominant, especially on the boards. The trio led the rebounding efforts, controlling the paint and limiting Long County’s second-chance opportunities. Their physicality in the post helped the Indians gain crucial possessions and extend their lead.
