The boys basketball district tournaments ended last week. Here is the list of area champions, all of which secured a spot in the playoffs with most hosting a region quarterfinal match tonight.

Class 7A, District 9

Damian Jones scored a team-high 19 points for the Raiders. 

Class 7A, District 10

Plant

The Panthers got payback for a loss to East Lake in last year’s district semifinals by beating the Eagles 51-43 in the title game. 

Down 9-8, Plant took control by outscoring East Lake 16-4 in the second quarter for a double digit halftime lead.

In the final, Newsome beat Sumner for the second time this season. 

Class 6A, District 4

The Bulls won their second title in school history. Better still, they did it by beating Mitchell 70-67 in the final to exact revenge from a loss earlier this season. 

In the final, Wiregrass Ranch jumped out to a 22-14 lead in the first quarter, giving the Bulls enough of a cushion to hold on for their fifth straight win.

Class 6A, District 9

Leto 

The Falcons, winners of six straight games, kept their current streak intact by beating Wharton 68-62 in the final for their first title since 1995. 

It was Leto’s second straight victory over the Wildcats, which was key in helping the Falcons secure the top seed in the region. 

Daniel Delgardo III (31 points), Derek Delgardo Jr. (19) and Qu’mar Hobbs (12) were the top three scorers for Leto.

King Asad was the only player from Blake to reach double figures in scoring in the championship game, finishing with 19 points.

Jacob Daniels finished with a team-high 26 points, including 5-of-7 in free throws. 

Class 3A, District 7 

Bell Creek Academy

The Panthers, who entered a district for the first time this season, won the title with a 44-31 victory over Lakeland Santa Fe Catholic in the final. 

That extended Bell Creek Academy’s win streak to six games. 

Jermal Jones and Caleb Sanders each scored 15 points in the final. 

Class 3A, District 9 

Tampa Catholic

The Crusaders got payback for a loss to Berkeley Prep in the regular season by beating their rival 60-50 in the final.

Ramone Seals, who set the school’s single season assist record earlier in the tournament, led the Spartans with 21 points and five assist in the title game. 

Class 2A, District 10
