Lindsey James shot a 203 game, Jesse Alff a 202 and Rylea Bennett a 200 for Jefferson.
It took the Xavier boys awhile to get into their game on their home floor Tuesday night.
But when they got away from playing Jefferson’s style of slow-ball and picked up speed, they ran right over the J-Hawks, 51-41.
On the heels of three straight long bombs by Creighton Robinson in a minute’s time, Stu Ordman’s Jefferson crew held a 21-7 lead with 5:20 to go in the second quarter.

Kayla Armstrong scored 14 points and Ashley Stulken added 10 as the Class 4A No.4 Saints beat the J-Hawks, 64-54.
Xavier (12-8) won the first meeting between the schools, 53-47, back in December. This game did not count in the conference standings, but still gave the Saints a sweep of the season series.

Timauntay Jones and Katie Dierks from Cedar Rapids Jefferson will sign their college letters-of-intent Wednesday in a ceremony at the school.
Jones will sign to run track at the University of Northern Iowa. He finished third in the 800 meters at the 2012 Class 4A state track meet (1:55.89) and placed fourth in the same event at the 2012 Drake Relays (1:57.18).
Dierks will sign to play soccer at Upper Iowa University. She collected seven goals and nine assists for the J-Hawks last season and was named first team all-Metro and first team all-Mississippi Valley Conference.
Wednesday's ceremony will begin at 12:40 p.m. in the Jefferson gym foyer.
Jones and Dierks will be joined by Taylor Jacobson, who previously announced she will run track at Northern Iowa next year.
Bob Fontana's basketball office at Kennedy High School is located just beyond a row of toilets in a corner of the boys locker room.
Now that he's won 300 games, maybe the school will give him fancier digs.
Fontana reached the milestone Friday night as the Cougars stuffed Jefferson, 47-32, in a Mississippi Valley Conference game at Kennedy.
Tony Vis has been looking for consistency and balance from his girls basketball team at Kennedy High School this year.
He found it Friday night.

Will James also was hot for the J-Hawks with games of 212 and 225 for a 437 series, and Sean Ely shot games of 224 and 206 for a 430. Zach Ficken shot a 230 game.

IOWA CITY - Jefferson wrestlers recorded 10 pins and walloped a pair of Mississippi Valley Conference foes Thursday night at Iowa City High.
The J-Hawks (11-6, 9-4) drubbed Waterloo West, 57-19, and demolished Iowa City High, 72-3.

Dalton Kuehl (220), Randy Deaton (285), Michael Moncivais (132) and Josh Allen (170) also had pins.
The free throw line can often be an intimidating place. On Tuesday night, Jefferson found it to be quite the contrary as they made themselves at home at the charity stripe.
The J-Hawks made 24 of 26 free throws, most of them late in the fourth quarter, as they went on to defeat Dubuque Wahlert, 63-54, at the Jefferson gym.
“They had ice water in their veins,” said Jefferson Coach Stu Ordman of his group of savvy foul shooters. “Twenty-four for 26 is not bad in my book.”
