FEATS OF THE WEEK:Brooklyn, Lincoln senior guard Sebastian Telfair became the all-time New York state scoring leader after a 49-point performance in a 107-52 rout of Grand Street. With 2,622 points, Telfair surpassed the previous record set by current NBA player Kenny Anderson at Briarwood, Molloy in 1989.

Bingham, Maine, Valley rallied from 18 points down in the fourth quarter to defeat Yarmouth, North Yarmouth Academy, 70-68, for the Cavaliers' 41st straight win. Valley was led by guard Mark Gaudet, who scored 23 of his game-high 44 points during the fourth-quarter comeback.

No. 4 Los Angeles, Westchester defeated No. 15-ranked Western League rival Fairfax, 63-55, a few days after learning its appeal to the California Interscholastic Federation to regain postseason eligibility was denied. The two-time defending Division I state champ Comets are being sanctioned for allegedly recruiting 6-9 junior center Amir Johnson away from a rival school. Johnson has been suspended for one year because of the incident.

No. 14 Bronx, N.Y., St. Raymond's defeated a short-handed No. 11 Mount Vernon, 61-60, in the Tom Crotty Memorial Classic at St. John's University. The Knights were without the services of Pittsburgh-bound guard Keith Benjamin, who injured his ankle in pre-game warm-ups.
