Boys Hoops Downs King on Senior Night
Before the intensity ramps up with the onset of playoffs, it's always fun to honor the seniors at their last home contest. And it's even more enjoyable with a well earned victory. On Thursday, Boys Basketball defeated the King School 64-37 and got one step closer to securing the third seed for the upcoming FAA tournament. The Hornets came out strong, especially in utilizing tight defense to keep the visiting Vikings at bay. The team took a 29-18 lead into the locker room at halftime. In the second frame, the defensive was even more tenacious, as the Hornets extended their lead to 20 mid-way through the half. The team then cruised to a comfortable win down the stretch. Junior Dan Draffan had a career high 25 points and 10 rebounds for his fifth “Double/Double” of the season. Andrew Rice led the team with 4 assists, while Michael DiMartino led with 4 steals.
Senior players Michael Di Martino, Kyle Williams, Kevin Johns, and Kyle Smith, as well as managers Jake Teplitzky and Shafton Haley, were honored with their families in attendance. All of these players have contributed significantly to the program over the years and they will be truly missed.
