Hornets Rock Woodstock
On Saturday, Boys Varsity Basketball earned a huge come-from-behind 94-90 win against Woodstock Academy in overtime at the National BasketBULL Tourney in Springfield, MA. With good reason the talented Woodstock squad already boasted a 12-2 record for the season and challenged the Hornets throughout the contest. The Hornets again fell behind against a talented foe, only to finish with a flourish. Trailing 67-51 early in the second half, the team kept battling to the end. The game went back and forth in the last two minutes, when Christian Adams made a big clutch three pointer to send the game into overtime. Junior Jackson Benigni was tremendous all game, leading all scorers with 41 points.
“I was so impressed with the way our guys stayed focused once again and never let the score bother them, " said Coach Doherty. "Our relentless attitude paid off late in the game and guys stepped up and made big plays when really needed! The key word for tonight’ was Resiliency. Our team character was tested early, but we maintained our focus throughout in order to get the win, added Christian Adams.
The Hornets are now 8-0 and play Wednesday, December 19, against FAA league rival Masters School of NY - the only league loss the Hornets experienced last year.
