St. Francis boys win back-to-back state championships

St. Francis boys defeated Greenforest, 76-55, for the Class A Private state title.

Starting off the Class A Private boys state championship game with a 12-0 run and taking a 14-point first half lead, St. Francis never looked back.

The Knights captured their second-consecutive boys basketball state championship Wednesday at the Macon Centreplex, defeating Greenforest, 76-55.

Xavier commit Dwon Odom put on a show with 27 points for the Knights.

"We knew what we were going to be able to do the whole game, so it was all about executing our game plan," Odom said. "It feels good, man. The two-peat feels very good. After the first two years, not making it and losing, and last year winning it -- this year feels even better. I'm a senior, I'm enjoying it with my senior friends and everybody on the team, and I'm just glad I could send the team out with another state championship."

Lamar Oden had 21 points for Greenforest.
