Hornets Win Final League Game
In a game that secured a second-place finish in the Fairchester League, Hamden Hall defeated King 64-42 in the last regular game of the season.
T.J Rountree, who was tied with Assistant Coach and the State’s All-Time Leading Scorer, Danny Oglesby, with 67 threes for a season, left little doubt in the first half who would own
the record dropping five threes’.
Andrew Rice, Dan Draffan each scored 6 points along with much improved Chris Wright adding 5 points to a half time score of 38-29 Hamden Hall.
The fundamental core of the team’s success in the second half of the season has been the Defense. The Hornets held their opponent to just 13 points and rode to their seventeenth victory of the season.
We have won 12 of the last 13 games since the winter break in December. Hopefully this will continue as we ready ourselves for the playoffs. With this victory, Hamden Hall finishes second in the league and draws a bye in the first round of the playoffs.
