Winless in district play, Lee-Davis faced an uphill battle from the start taking on # 2 seed Henrico in the quarterfinals of the Capital District Tournament. But in a game that was more competitive than the final score indicates, Henrico moved on to the second round with an 84-67 win over the Confederates.
The Warriors stormed onto the Varina floor and caught Lee-Davis flat-footed. Henrico scored the first 14 points of the contest before the midway point of the first quarter.
Logan Dandridge, who led the Confederates with 15 points, finally stopped the bleeding for Lee-Davis when he nailed a three from the left wing with 4:45 to play in the period, but it did little to slow down the Warriors.
With a minute remaining in the opening quarter, Henrico led 23-7. But over most of the remainder of the contest Lee-Davis played them even as the Warriors turned to ineffective showboating and the C-feds solid fundamentals. Over the remainder of the half, Lee-Davis out-scored Henrico by three.
Coming out of the locker room, Henrico apparently saw the error of their ways at the close of the first, going on a 16-5 run to start the third and lead 66-41 heading into the fourth.
Getting an impressive showing from Shrevon Clark (11 points) inside, JD Harvey (13 points), the ball handling of Cedric Holley and quick hands of Chris Kunca, Lee-Davis outscored Henrico 26-18 in the final period.
