Sidney 68, Greene 37
GREENE – Sidney completed an unbeaten season in Midstate Athletic Conference play Thursday night at Greene.
Four Sidney players finished in double figures led by Alex Heil’s 17 points. Dylan Umbra added 15. “Their starting five, you can tell they’ve played together for a while,” said Greene coach Rick Smith. “They share the ball and they share the scoring.”
Sidney expanded on a 21-13 lead after one quarter outscoring the Trojans (8-8) 21-5 in the second period. “They are a very disciplined team and they had too many easy layups in the paint,” Smith said. “We didn’t move our feet (on defense), body up or contest shots. We didn’t do all of the little things you need to do against a team like Sidney.”
Evan Moxley led Greene with 11 points.
