Beamon Lighting Up Nassau Basketball

BY LAURA ALBANESE

George Beamon, the Roslyn junior with a seemingly golden touch, is poised to make a mark on Conference ABC-III. Coach Jeff Risener seems to think as much, noting that the junior is having a "good year."

Looks like that may turn out to be something of an understatement.

Beamon scored 26 points and had eight rebounds in tonight's game against Sewanhaka - their first conference game of the season. Good, right? But Beamon has been putting up those numbers consistently for his crew. He scored a whopping 34 points in a game against Hewlett last week - 16 of those coming in the last 10 minutes.

But wait, there's more.

He led Roslyn again in the Dec. 8 game against Oyster Bay - his 30 points and 10 rebounds carrying the team to a 69-66 win in the Tom Robinson Memorial Tournament final. He was named the tourney MVP, thanks no doubt to his 27 points the game before.

Keep an eye on this one, folks. It could be great.
