Whis Grant set the tone by opening the frantic final period with an explosive dash through the paint for a layup, while 6-foot-10 C.J. Aiken dominated the lane with 19 points in a 58-51 win Saturday night over defending champ Penn Wood for the Class AAAA boys title.
Plymouth-Whitemarsh (30-2) went home victorious after their first trip to the finals since 1997, spoiling Penn Wood's dreams for a repeat.
Aaron Brown and Tyree Johnson each had 15 points for the Patriots (27-4).
Plymouth-Whitemarsh trailed by 10 early but surged ahead late behind Aiken's high-wire act as he soared for layups and blocked three shots in the last quarter.
