Greens Farms Has its Way with Hamden Hall 83-58
It was the first round of the League Playoffs and the Hornets were seeded 2nd based on the regular season standing of 11-3.
Greens Farms with a record within the league of 10-4 was seeded 3rd.
We each won at our respective Home courts during the regular season.
The seeding gave the Hornets the home court as well as a bye in the first round.
In every season a team has ups and downs and last night is was clearly down. We simply didn’t play well. Our opponents out hustled us. This is not the Hamden Hall team that showed up all season.
The core of our success this season has been the defense, but it was nowhere to be found as the Dragons took the lead from the opening tap-off. The score at half time was 41-33 Green Farms.
In the second half, the Hornets cut their opponents lead to 3 points 49 to 46 with ten minutes left in the game. That was the closest it would be.
The Hot hand of 6’3 Sophomore Cole Prowitt-Smith who had five 3’s and a game high 28 points and 6’7 Senior Sunday Okeke (a Wake Forest commit) who scored 19 of his 27 points in the second half was too much for the Hornets.
