PA Rams earn victory

PORT ANGELES — The Port Angeles Rams rallied in the second half to earn an 88-77 win over the Handle It Prep Academy Panthers in a semipro basketball game at Peninsula College.

Rams head coach Gerrad Brooks said the team opened up a six-point lead to enter the fourth quarter and never looked back.

Nick Camporini led the way for Port Angeles with 26 points. Abraham Venske added 24 and Michael Janis notched 18 for the Rams.

“First half [Handle It Prep] controlled the tempo with their outside shooting and the second half it was our defense and offensive adjustments that ultimately pulled it out for us,” Brooks said.
