Piscataway 66 Teaneck 64 | Boys | Resolution Rumble
Josh Lima’s basket and foul with 20.1 seconds to go gave the Chiefs the lead and score a statement win to open 2026. Teaneck (6-1) had two chances to force overtime in the final 20 seconds but couldn’t convert, turning the ball over and then missing two free throws in the final seconds that would have forced overtime. Mickell Taylor, Jr. led all scorers with 23 points for the Highwaymen. Piscataway had four players in double digits led by Isaiah Fowler’s 17 points followed by Donald Nwaigwe’s 15 points, Lima’s 13 point effort and an outstanding 12 point, 8 assist, 6 steal stat line courtesy of Landon Pernell.
