S-E tournament
Clinton 61, S-E 41 (Finals)
Unadilla Valley 47, Laurens 17 (consolation)
SHERBURNE – Unbeaten Clinton pounded Sherburne-Earlville on the boards and muscled past the Marauders for the S-E Tournament title Saturday evening.
Tournament MVP, Marquita Pring had 14 points in the victory and Lauren Conway, who did not play in Friday’s win over Unadilla Valley, added 11 points. “They just killed us on the glass, and we couldn’t handle them there,” said S-E coach Jeff Barry. “We couldn’t get any second shots, and we gave them too many.”
Erin Dowdall scored 11 points for S-E, who advanced to the finals with a victory over Laurens Friday, 62-22.
Unadilla Valley notched its first win of the season topping Laurens by 30 points in the consolation game. Katrina Benson had her second straight 10-point game for the Storm, while Theresa Lazarus added eight points, eight rebounds, and four steals. “We came out big in the first quarter and got a lot of points out of our press,” said UV coach Daryl Decker, whose club led 16-4 at the first turn.
Clinton topped UV 49-42 in the first game Friday.

Kylie Martin scored a season-high 17 points including 12 in the fourth quarter after Cincy had closed a one-time 19-point OV lead down to seven points. “We were aggressive pushing the ball up the floor and were able to get some quick transition baskets,” said OV coach Kevin Springer of his team’s 18-4 first quarter. “For whatever reason, we put the brakes on and were playing not to lose.”

Greene 67, Walton 61
GREENE – After giving up an 11-point lead, the Trojans (3-2) iced their win over the Warriors at the foul line making 18-of-27 attempts in the fourth stanza.
Mike Porter was 4-for-4 from the stripe and Chris Engler made good on six foul shots in a 24-point stanza. “They were pressuring us throughout the game, and there were some fouls and bumps,” said Greene coach Jeff Paske. “Their press hurt us during the comeback, but we adjusted and were able to finish the game out.”
Porter led with 19 points and Cameron Daniels added a career-high 18 points including seven in the fourth quarter. Daniels grabbed a team-high six rebounds and Dustin Turner had four blocked shots.

Otselic Valley 58, Stockbridge Valley 43
SOUTH OTSELIC – After a slow start, the Vikings pulled away in the second quarter to build a double-digit lead and defeat the Indians Friday night.
David Cerasani had his second straight 20-point game leading the Vikings with 21 points, while Robert Guyer tacked on 16. “Defensively, we were able to create some turnovers, and that gave us a chance at some transition baskets,” said OV coach Dave Loomis. “We needed that because we’re really struggling in our halfcourt offense.”

G-MU 58, Schenevus 42
COPES CORNERS – G-MU raced to an 18-point halftime lead, and maintain strong defense throughout to improve to 2-0 in Tri-Valley League play (2-1 overall).
“We were very sharp in the first half, shot it well, and executed our press efficiently,” said G-MU coach Bill Hartman. “The kids followed the scouting report to a tee.”
Drew Hartman, Cody Hall, and Peter Schmidt all had 11 points for the Raiders, and the scored was spread out evenly down the lineup. “That’s one of the most positive outcomes we could have asked for,” Hartman said. “If you spread the scoring out, the defense doesn’t know where the offense is coming from, and they can’t focus on one person.”
G-MU is at Morris tonight.

B-G drops three in NYC tournament
NEW YORK CITY – Bainbridge-Guilford learned a lesson in quickness falling in three games in as many days this weekend in New York City.
Willie McGinnis scored 48 points over the three tournament games to lead B-G (1-3) including a 21-point effort in a 68-41 loss to Blessed Sacrament Sunday. “The quickness (by the opponents) was overwhelming compared to us, but each game we improved a little bit, and our foul shooting improved,” said B-G coach Ben Nelson. “Three games in three days is tough, especially against that level of competition.”
B-G is at Sidney Tuesday.

UV, S-E place one-two at Richfield Springs
RICHFIELD SPRINGS – Unadilla Valley returned to the top spot in the Richfield Springs Tournament, and Sherburne-Earlville placed second as the two local clubs dominated the Section III competition.
Tyler Peet (103), Shayne Wilcox (135), and T.J. Brownell (160) won titles for the Storm, who placed 10 of 12 wrestlers among the top four. “This was a nice tournament for us, but we still have a lot to prove,” said UV first-year coach Jim DuVall. “We lost a lot to graduation and have some new faces in the lineup. So far we’ve performed well, and when we get in more pressure-intense matches, we’ll see what they’re made of.”
S-E nearly matched the Storm finishing with nine place-winners including titles from Mike Ezzo (171), John Posson (215), and Chris Pike (275).
Ezzo, a transfer from Oxford, won a close decision in the finals for his first tournament title, Posson pinned all his opponents for the crown, and Pike showed superior quickness in the heaviest division taking his title. “Obviously we would have liked to win, but this was a good performance for us – one of our best in a team tournament in a while,” said S-E assistant coach Brian Hicks. “I think our upper weights will probably be our strong suit in tournaments this year.”

Maine-Endwell 63, Norwich 31
ENDWELL – Maine-Endwell swept the three relays and won eight of 11 events overall to deal Norwich a loss Friday evening at the Spartans’ four-lane pool.
Dan Wenzel (200 IM), Ryan Marchant (100 fly) and Cole Adams (500 free) garnered wins for the Tornado, who were outscored by 14 points in the three relays. “We expected it could be a close meet, and there were some close races, but M-E usually came out on top in those races,” said Norwich coach Rick Marchant. “We got behind early, and in a four-lane pool, it’s difficult to make up the points.”
Norwich swims at Greene today in a non-league meet.
