Demons outscored down stretch, 22-5, in 67-53 home loss
The faster the Westlake High School boys basketball team fired up shots, the farther they fell behind Tuesday night. The result was a stunning 67-53 loss to Lakewood, which outscored the Demons 22-5 over the final six minutes. "We just rushed everything," coach Bob Patton said after the Demons dropped to 10-9 on the season. "There was no real reason for it. We didn't take particularly bad shots, we just took them too soon. "It is fine to want to push the ball, to get out and run, but you have to do it smartly. You have to be under control." That's how Westlake played in the first half to open a 32-25 lead. "We forced the tempo in the first half by playing sound defense," Patton said. "The momentum changed in the third quarter. We regrouped…

Demons' Jason Labroo leads team with 16 points in losing effort.
Danny Montgomery scored 12 of his game-high 31 points in the first quarter and made two key free throws late in the game to give North Ridgeville a hard-fought 54-50 non-conference win over Westlake on Tuesday night. Westlake (4-6) trailed by 12 points before staging a late run to close the deficit to two late in the fourth quarter. But they would not get any closer.

Westlake's senior guard is team's all-time leading three-point shooter; counted on leading youthful squad.
What Westlake senior guard Jason LaBroo wants more than anything this year is to recapture that silky-smooth shooting touch he had last year, and the year before. As a junior, LaBroo (6-foot-3) was a first-team all Southwest Conference selection after averaging 15 points a game and shooting close to 60 percent from beyond the 3-point line. This year, LaBroo and the Demons are 3-4 and LaBroo is averaging 13 points. He knows there is one area that needs improvement and it's what he does best -- shooting from the outside. ''As far as pure shooting, I just need to practice more and try to get out of this funk as quickly as possible,'' said LaBroo. ''The more I practice and the more I start making shots, the more confidence I'll get.'' Westlake…

Jason LaBroo is on target to lead scoring this season.
Westlake senior guard Jason LaBroo is a three-point shooter who is being counted on to lead the Demons this season. Last year, he averaged 15 points per game and shot nearly 60 percent from beyond the three-point line. He's on pace to do it again this year and shared some thoughts with Patch's David Lee Morgan: Westlake Patch: What is the craziest thing you've ever done? Jason LaBroo: I put my hand inside a giraffe's mouth once in some type of Safari down in Florida. Westlake Patch: Who is your favorite athlete and why? LaBroo: Michael Jordan because he works hard all the time. He was the best at what he did because of hard work. Westlake Patch: What's the best advice you've gotten so far in your athletic career? LaBroo: You should …
