NHS offense sputters against Yellowjackets

Oneonta 49, Norwich 19

NORWICH – Norwich did not score a field goal until the second period, and shot just over 20 percent from the field in its lowest scoring outing of the season.

“They extended their zone quite a bit, and they make it uncomfortable for you on offense,” said Norwich coach Krista Porter. “Some of our shots were rushed, so therefore, the release isn’t good.”

Madie Harlem had 10 points for the Yellowjackets, and Lesley Harlem added nine. Norwich’s defense paid particular attention to Madie Harlem and Meredith Ridgway. The duo combined for just 14 points. “Emily Tackabury guarded Harlem and Brooke Abbott had Ridgway most of the game,” Porter said. “Those two did a good job holding them down defensively.”

Norwich (1-13) plays at Maine-Endwell Wednesday.
