Jackson Dzwik became the all-time career scoring leader for boys basketball in the city of Battle Creek with 41 points in a St. Philip 62-34 win over Jackson Christian on Tuesday, Feb. 17.
Dzwik recently broke the St. Philip career scoring record when he passed 2020 graduate Conor Gausselin's previous mark of 1,397. From there, Dzwik was chasing Battle Creek Central great Kenyon Murray, who was an All-American for the Bearcats and graduated in 1992. Murray had the most points in a high school career for a Battle Creek school with 1,488.
