Senior Kirby Mooney continues to break records as he leads the William Tennent basketball team to more victories in his last year playing for the Warminster school, writes Tom Moore for the Bucks County Courier Times.

On January 2, Mooney became the school’s boys basketball career scoring leader with 1,344 points with a free throw in the second minute of the game against New Hope-Solebury. His team ended up winning the game 70-59.

“I talked to him about the record and he said, ‘You don’t have to do anything’ — almost like don’t even worry about it,” said William Tennent head coach Robert Mulville. “I was like, ‘Well, we’ve got to have some kind of recognition for it because it’s such a big monument, milestone.'”

After the foul shot, the coach called a timeout to give Mooney’s teammates and coaches a chance to congratulate the new record-holder to plenty of applause from the visitors.

Mooney will continue playing basketball next year in college, which will leave Mulville needing to replace a key player.

“It has been a special four years coaching him,” he said.
