Boston English and O'Brien each won key Boston City League boys' basketball games last week, keeping their state tournament hopes alive. Boston English routed City on a Hill 101-44 on Thursday night, with Mekhi Dedrick hitting a first-quarter three-pointer and Sharrell Wiggins contributing a steal-and-dunk sequence in a 56-26 halftime rout that snowballed into a century mark. On Friday, O'Brien defeated Madison Park 78-56 in the Battle of the Complex, riding a 14-0 first-quarter run powered by Wayne Wiles and Manny Mendez, who led all scorers with 19 points; Madison Park's Mike Nichols scored 18 in a losing effort.
The broadcast noted both teams "still have a lot of work left" to reach the late-February state tournament, and O'Brien's upcoming game against Tech Boston, a 84-51 winner over East Boston on Friday, figures as a marquee test.
