Lee ends Sharks Season Lee High of Jacksonville ended Ponte Vedra?s Magical season Tuesday night 53-44 in a score that was in no way indicative of how tight this contest was played. The Sharks led at every stop before Lee outscored the hosts 21-9 to end the PVHS season with a marvelous record of 22-5. Following a Luke Pirris 3-point play with 1:26 left on the clock the Sharks trailed the Generals by but one point 44-45. However, that would prove to be the final points tallied by the Sharks as missed shots, a key turnover, and fouls doomed the Sharks down the stretch. The game marked the end for 3 seniors, Alex Madson, Jack Polian and Rory Mayer who played a major role in the Sharks winning season. However, the Sharks return 3 of the 6 players who garnered all the minutes in the Lee contest, including Junior Luke Pirris who led all scorers with 21 points in the losing effort. Sophomore Nathan Bunkosky and Junior JT Kelly who scored 13 points between them will certainly help form a solid group of returnees for the following season. Both teams were evenly matched but one of the advantages for Lee was in their 3-point shooting as well as 3-point defense. The Generals converted on 7 from behind the arc while the Sharks were limited to but 6 attempts and for the first time in their 27 game season, they failed to make a 3. Even in defeat second year head coach Kevin Whirity lauded his 2020-21 squad. ?Their work ethic, unselfishness and determination was remarkable,? said Whirity. ?Never seen a group of men fight for something they love so hard.?
