Hornets Secure Third Place with 82-73 Win over Masters
Hamden Hall took care of Business with a needed win over Master’s in a Fairchester League Game.
The win gave the Hornet’s a Home game and third place seeding in the league playoffs against King Tomorrow at 6:15.
The Hornets were ready to play and jumped out quickly with aggressive defensive pressure that led to a 12 to 2 run. The zone trap defense kept Masters off balance; however personal fouls against Hamden Hall played a role as three Starters went to the bench, Dan Draffan, Michael DiMartino and Kyle Smith each having 2 fouls each.
The Bench play came thru with Krish Moran hitting two key three’s, the floor play of Kyle Williams along with Andrew Rice going 8 for 8 from the charity Stripe and 16 points and the solid play of T.J Rountree 14 points kept the lead in the hands of the Hornets with a half time score of 48-31.
In the second half Masters made a run cutting the lead to 4 points with 4 minutes to go. Mike DiMartino, Dan Draffan scored 8 points respectfully and Kyle Smith, Andrew Rice, TJ.Rountree added 6 points as the defensive pressure that got the Hornets out front caused havoc again and Hamden Hall increased their margin back to a 12-point advantage for their fourteenth win of the regular season.
