Martin is Edmeston’s three-point specialist bringing into Saturday’s matchup an impressive 291 three pointers made.

The Tornado duo of Eli Craddock and Keegan Franklin combined for 15 points in the third period while Torin Lawrence scored 11 points in the fourth period for Norwich.
“By the end of the third quarter, we were in control of the game, we slowed things down and executed our offense” added Collier.
