Charlie Crockett (23 points) and Tamenang Choh (15) led top-seeded Brooks to a 58-47 comeback win over Pomfret in the New England Prep B quarterfinals.

"Our defense was significantly better in the second half,"  Brooks coach John McVeigh said. "We were down by eight midway through the second half and had a strong run." 

Strong run is an understatement. Trailing 39-31, Brooks went on a 21-1 run to take a 50-42 advantage. 

Choh's dunk made it 41-40 Brooks and his team controlled the game the rest of the way.

"Crockett was terrific and he and Choh were definitely the two guys (who played best) for us," McVeigh said.

This is the fifth straight year Brooks has advanced to the New England semifinals. It will host No. 4 seed St. Mark's on Friday at a time yet to be announced.
