Girls

A late season non-league run turned into an overtime affair in Greenwich Monday night, and the home squad did just enough in the extra session, outscoring Mayfield 9-7, to post the 49-47 victory.
Olivia Barnes had a huge night for the Witches pouring in 27 points to go with 18 rebounds to lead Greenwich who improves to 8-8 on the season with the “W”.
Mayfield (9-9), was paced by Sydney Sheldon with 18 points, and Camryn Meca who added 12 points on four makes from behind the arc.
When we talked yesterday about the matchups between Hoosick Falls and Hoosic Valley one thing we didn’t discuss is how difficult it is to step on a good team’s home floor and secure a “W”. Both the Indian girls and Falls boys handled their business at home Friday night in a pair of games that highlighted a full slate of action in the Wasaren. Continue reading
Longtime rivals Hoosick Falls and Hoosic Valley will get together tonight at a pair of venues with plenty on the line for both the girls and boys squads.

The Stillwater girls took the short drive north Monday night to take on the Black Horses of Schuylerville in a non-league run. The two squads met back in November with Schuylerville notching a 55-43 victory, and last night the Warriors looked to avenge that early season defeat.
Deadlocked at 23, after two quarters of play, Stillwater used a big second half out scoring the Horses 31-19 to capture the “W”.
Schuylerville’s Emily Valee led all scorers in this one pouring a game high 26 points.
Danika Svendsen paced the Warriors with 15 points, and Marly Muller added 12 for Stillwater who are enjoying a solid season. With the win they improve to 4-6, 6-8 on the year with a pair of those league defeats coming by just a single point.
Next up for Stillwater it’s back to league play, and fitting that on this Regents week the Warriors will be well tested Friday night when the front-running Tamarac Bengals come to town.
With five games remaining in league play three squads have separated from the pack in their pursuit of the girls Wasaren title. After 11 league runs Tamarac set’s the pace with a 10-1 record followed by Hoosic Valley and Hoosick Falls with identical 9-2 marks. Continue reading
