The Kings Park boys basketball squad mashed the gas pedal from the opening tip-off and never lifted it in a road game against the Wildcats of Shoreham-Wading Friday afternoon. Jan. 17. 

The Kingsmen, protecting a 12-point lead coming out of the halftime break, never looked back scoring the Wildcats in the third quarter before Kings Park head coach Chris Rube rested most of his starters and flushed the bench, cruising to a 50-33 victory in the League VI contest.

Justin Sandstedt led the way for the Kingsmen scoring 12 points along with teammate Jay Paul Verme who netted 10. 

The win lifts the Kingsmen to 6-2 holding on to  second place in the league standings while the loss drops the Wildcats to 3-6
