San Ysidro freshman Mikey Williams has gone off again.
The 6-foot, 3-inch guard set a San Diego Section record last night with 77 points in a 116-42 victory over Kearny at the Imperial High tournament, according to Max Preps.
A night earlier Williams scored 51 in a 108-61 win against Brawley. He had 50 in an 85-77 triumph at Montgomery earlier this month.
Williams’ record came 13 years and 364 days after Crawford’s Tyrone Shelley scored 76 points in a 138-29 win against Canadian squad Central of Burlington, Ontario.
Williams is averaging 29.9 points a game and San Ysidro is coached by Terry Tucker, Shelley’s mentor when Tyrone averaged 27.9 points on a 21-10 team that was runner-up to St. Augustine in the 2004-05 San Diego Section Division III final.
San Ysidro is 6-3 going into tonight’s championship at Imperial. The Cougars did not do well when they took part in the Battle Zone tournament at Corona.
The South Bay team defeated San Bernardino, 89-53 in the opening game but lost to host Corona Centennial, 89-48, to Riverside Hillcrest, 56-44, and 100-84 to Foothills Christian.
Williams and San Ysidro will open play in the Torrey Pines tournament Dec. 26 against Phoenix St. Mary’s.
