R.J. Debo getting ready to release the shot that would put him in the record books.

(New Brighton, PA) On Friday evening, the basketball faithful gathered in the Main Gymnasium at New Brighton Area High School had plenty to cheer about, even though the Lions dropped an exciting game to the visiting Warriors of Mohawk, 62-54.  That’s Because senior forward Ronald “R.J.” Debo scored his 1000th career point during the third quarter.  Debo needed just 19 points to achieve the milestone and gave everybody reason to celebrate when a three pointer launched from just  a bit to the left of the center of the arc settled into the net.   Debo led the scoring for the New Brighton Lions, finishing the night  with 25 points.

Debo became just the tenth boys basketball player in New Brighton High School history to score over a thousand career points.
