He scored 19 points, grabbed seven rebounds and tossed out three assists in a one-point victory over second-seeded Lycoming on Wednesday in the semifinals. He then helped Arcadia beat top-seeded DeSales in the championship with a 13-point, 12-rebound double-double. Watkins shot a perfect 5-for-5 from the free throw line on the week and made his only three-point attempt.
