Norwich 41, Owego 40
NORWICH – Norwich made two defensive stops in the final 20 seconds to hold on against Owego Tuesday night at Jack Jones Gymnasium.
In a seesaw fourth quarter that saw five ties or lead changes, Norwich took the lead for good when Breanne Cashman hit two free throws to make it 40-40, and Jenny Borfitz made one of two charity tosses with 1:24 left for the one point lead.
Two possessions later, Owego had the ball with under 30 seconds to play. Norwich’s frontcourt trapped the Owego ballhandler forcing a bad pass that was stolen by NHS senior Hailey Dietrich.
After Bryn Loomis missed the front end of a one-and-one free throw for Norwich, Owego had one final opportunity to take the lead. Courtney Malia drove the right baseline toward the hoop, but her shot bounced around the rim and was knocked out of bounds with 0.8 seconds remaining. The ensuing inbounds pass never found an Owego player’s hands as time expired.
In was was easily the most closely contested Norwich game of the season, neither team led by four points at any time in the game. Owego took a 28-25 lead with 1:57 left on the third quarter after Katelyn Simpson hit a spot-up jumper from the left elbow following a feed from Jill Silvanic.
Norwich closed the quarter on a 6-0 run of its own. Reserve Taylor Cook, playing her most significant minutes of the season, put back an offensive rebound, Cassie Sutton drained a baseline shot on the right wing, and Cashman netted a deuce with Sutton lending the helper.
Not one Norwich player scored in double figures, the first time that has happened this season. Borfitz led with eight points, and Dietrich scored seven. Sutton added five assists to go with her six points.

Trailing the Crimson Knights 12-9 at halftime, Greene allowed just eight points over the final two quarters, and the shooting improved slightly during that time. “We didn’t give them any easy baskets in the second half, and we played with a lot more energy,” said Greene coach Dave Gorton.
Kaitlin Gorton scored seven points for Greene, who did not score in the first quarter, and shot 2-for-32 from the field to trail by three. “We didn’t rebound it well, handle it well or shoot it well. We were lucky to be in the game,” Gorton said.

She’s that good.”
Beers had 21 of her team’s 25 points in the first half to keep her club in the game. G-MU raced to a 20-6 edge in the first quarter behind 11 points from Sabrina Brooks. Brooks nailed three three-pointers on her way to a 14-point night.

SHERBURNE – Walton’s reshuffled lineup did not pay off Tuesday.
The Warriors moved up Logan Robinson at 113 pounds to face S-E’s Kevin Dunshee, and Dunshee prevailed, 5-0. Two matches later, Dustin Mosley (126) rallied for a key S-E win. Down 7-0 late in the second period, Mosley turned the Warriors’ Tommy Caldarolo, and earned the pin. “It could have been a 9-6 match in Walton’s favor, but instead we were up 15-0,” said S-E assistant coach Brian Hicks. “We knew we had 12 points coming at the end, but it was nice to have those things work in our favor earlier in the match.”
Adding another big victory was Dalton Sopchak, who beat Walton’s Gabe Sikorski, 4-2 in overtime, in the 170-pound matchup.
