Colt Basketball opened up its 2022-23 season with a 62-47 win over Modesto.
After a slow start and only leading by 2 (24-22) at the half, the Colts opened up a 9 point lead early in the second half thanks to back to back threes from freshman Miles Jones. The Pirates fought back and took a one point lead near the 12 minute mark, but from there on, it was the Colts who took control and steadily put the game away with their defense and scoring points in transition to take down Modesto 62-47.
Miles Jones tied with Daniel Benjamin, who came off the bench to give the team a boost, for the scoring lead with 12 points. Freshman Luca Joe Ewelt played big for the Colts, had several blocked shots and added 11 points.
The Colts play next on Wednesday, November 9th at Monterey Peninsula.
