Chesley Reaches Career High

This photograph is a collage image of 3 equally sized photos of Keith Chesley. In the front and middle of the image written in white is Keith Chesley Career High 41 Points. The first image to the left is Keith in shooting position. He is on his toes, knees slightly bent, and arms up and ready in front of his chest. He is wearing a white uniform. In the center photo has Chesley jumping into the air basketball about ready to leave his hands. Team member wearing blue uniform is standing in front of him, while two opposing team members are behind the blue uniform member. The last photo all the way to the right has physical contact between Chesley and a team member from the other team jumped into the air. Both men are pressing against each other, and wearing the same number 34. Chesley's arms are out and wide, the ball in his right hand, defender on his left side. The white jersey team member has both hands in the air as well but his right arm is blurred due to movement, as if swinging towards the ball.

Keith Chesley (Clinton, ME) of the men's basketball team recorded a career high of 41 points last night against Northern Maine Community College. Keith now holds the 8th spot in the record books for most points scored in a game for UMA. He passed his father’s record, Greg Chesley (36 points), and other standout players from 1970-1990. This list includes Arlan St. Surin (39 pts), Dean Graham (39 pts), John Shoppe (40 pts), and Charles Martz (40 pts). William Kenneth of the 1976-77 team still holds the lead with 65 points in a single game.

Prior to last night’s game, Chesley was averaging 28.5 points over the past four games and averaging 27 points on the season.  He is currently ranked third in points per game in the Yankee Small College Conference (YSCC).  He is currently leading the YSCC in rebounds per game at 13.3.  In last night’s game Chesley was 5-8 from beyond the arc and shot a perfect 8-8 from the charity stripe.  He was 14-25 overall and pulled down an incredible 24 rebounds. 

Once again, we would like to congratulate Keith Chesley on an amazing accomplishment!
