Jalen Adams and Nashua's Kaleb Joseph make up one of the best backcourts in America and on Wednesday night they showed it as they combined for 54 points en route to a 89-86 win over Wilbraham & Monson.
 

In a game that featured more than 5 Division I prospects, Cushing was able to lean on Adams (34 points), Joseph (20 points) and Idris Taqqee (15 points) to bring home the win. 

Wilbraham & Monson boast one of the best front court players in the nation in Goodluck Okonoboh (committed to UNLV) and he didn't disappoint with one of the dunks of the year (see highlights) and 17 points on the night.  Max Hoetzel finshed with 17 of his own and Curtis Cobb led the way scoring inside and outside on his way to 20.

With the win Cushing improves to 17-5 on the year and WMA falls to 12-12 (based on reported scores).  Both will be in play in March's NEPSAC Class AA tournament and should be expected to make a run to Endicott.
