NEIGHBORHOOD RIVALRY GAMES AGAINST MUMFORD ALWAYS PROVIDE TIGHT, TOUGH GAMES. THE MUSTANGS HADN'T WON A GAME THIS SEASON BUT WERE LOOKING TO WIN THEIR FIRST AGAINST THE PHOENIX. RENAISSANCE HAS STARTED SLOWLY ALOT IN THIS 2009-2010 CAMPAIGN AND THAT PUTS THEM DOWN AND GIVES THE OTHER TEAM CONFIDENCE. THE WINLESS MUSTANGS HAD LED THE MAJORITY OF THE GAME AND WENT INTO THE FOURTH ONLY DOWN TWO POINTS. THE 4TH WAS BACK AND FOURTH AND THE DECIDING FACTOR CAME IN THE LAST TWO MINUTES. WITH THE PHOENIX JUST UP ONE AND RUNNING SOME CLOCK, SENIOR MIKE JACKSON NAILED AN OPEN THREE TO PUT THE PHOENIX UP FOUR. ON THE NEXT POSSESSION MUMFORD WOULD SCORE TO CUT THE LED TO TWO AND THEN FOUL. AFTER TWO CHENE PHILLIPS FREE THROWS AND A SPLIT ONE AND ONE FOR MUMFORD, THE PHOENIX PULL OUT THE ROAD VICTORY. SENIOR CHENE PHILLIPS LED THE WAY WITH 24 POINTS 6 REBOUNDS AND 5 ASSIST. JUNIOR GERALD JOHNSON HAD ANOTHER GOOD SHOOTING PERFORMANCE MAKING FOUR THREE AND SCORING 20 POINTS. SENIOR MIKE JACKSON SCORED ALL OF HIS 10 POINTS IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.
