Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead East Lake to victory, but perhaps none more so than Jordan Bryant<\/a>, who dropped a double-double with 18 points and 16 rebounds. That’s the most boards Bryant has posted since back in January of 2025.

As for St. Petersburg, their loss ended a four-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 16-9. They were up 58-44 in the third quarter but couldn’t hold on to the lead.<\/p>\n

Despite the defeat, St. Petersburg saw an underclassman step up: sophomore Nijaun Harris<\/a> had 36 points. Harris’ big performance that afternoon made it 27 games in a row in which he has scored at least 15 points. Another player making a difference was Zak Mellouki<\/a>, who scored eight points.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, East Lake will face off against Steinbrenner at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Eagles will be up against the Warriors’ rather soft defense (which has allowed 60.32 points per game), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance. St. Petersburg does not have any more games scheduled as of now.<\/p>\n
