LELAND—Hanging on a wall above an exit at the North Brunswick High School gym is the Houston Rockets’ Chucky Brown shooting a jump over Danny Ferry. When Brown returned to his high school alma mater Friday for the Clarence Brown North Brunswick  Basketball Camp—named in honor of his dad—one of the campers asked Brown whether he made the shot. Brown pointed toward the poster.

“I made the shot,” he said.

Some of the campers reacted, as if the answer had settled a bet.

BRICK LANDING LGA
The Brick Landing Plantation Ladies Golf Association league event at Brierwood was Ace Day. First-flight winner was Jean Lakey with a net 68. Dale Calhoon was second at 70 and Irene Dowdy third at 73. Pat Christenbury was first in the second flight with a net 63 and took Ace of the Month honor. Mary Biesack was second at 68 and Barb Karkut third at 72. The third-flight winner was Peg Campana at 72. Sharon Deutsch was second at 74 and Peg Agrimonti was third at 78. Dale Calhoon birdied No. 2 and had a chip-in birdie on No. 12. Sharon Deutsch birdied No. 3.

The weather remains hot and dry but the fish haven’t yet gone into the typical summertime pattern and are still very active. The last two weeks have featured a renewed speckled trout bite in addition to continued good action on flounder and redfish. Trout anglers are scoring with live bait at the jetties, piers and bridges.
