UNC commit Marcus Paige scores 49 points
Posted Feb 29, 2012
Marcus Paige continues to show why he has received a basketball scholarship from UNC. The senior guard exploded for 49 points Tuesday while sparking Linn-Mar (Marion, Iowa) to a comeback 83-77 double-overtime victory against Kennedy (Cedar Rapids, Iowa) in a Class 4A substate final. His team trailed by nine points with one minute left in the fourth quarter, but he led a furious comeback, scoring nine points in the last 30 seconds.
