Lady Trojans use solid shooting performance in 2nd quarter to take down Blue Devils

Bobcats first half paces them past Black Knights

CHENANGO FORKS – The Lady Trojans of Greene quickly shook off a rusty start in the first quarter to take the game back eight minutes later before finishing out on top, defeating non-conference opponent Chenango Forks 41-34 Tuesday night.
The Lady Blue Devils of Chenango Forks jumped out to an early 14-4 lead after Bree Fargnoli started off the game with a hot hand, hitting four 3-pointers in the first quarter.
Greene received their points from Emma Smith shooting performance at the foul line but that was all the points they put up on the scoreboard.
“We weren’t able to get in the gym since last Friday and it showed early,” said Trojans’ head coach Dave Gorton. “We went 0-for-11 from the field and turned it over several times.”
However, in the second stanza, the Greene team looked like a brand new squad as they went 9-for-13 from the floor to score 18 points in the eight minutes of play. With the sharing of the ball between the team, seven different Trojans scored in the 18-7 run while eight buckets were assisted on.
“It was a good quarter,” Gorton said. “We need to be more consistent with our passing to help us get going offensively.”
Defensively, Greene limited the Blue Devils to just 10 points in the middle two quarters of play. By the end of the third quarter, the Trojans had turned what was once a one point deficit into a six point lead.
In the final quarter, Greene used two 3-pointers and three made foul shots by McKenna Sergi to preserve their lead as they outscored Chenango Forks 11-10. Smith added a bucket in the stanza as she finished with a team-high 12 points and Sergi ended the night with 11.
Fargnoli added another two from beyond the arc to make seven in the contest and scored a game-high 24 points in the loss for the Blue Devils.
The Trojans go back to Midstate Athletic play on Friday when they head to Walton for a 7 p.m. game-time.
