From the Coach - Dryden Boys Hoops @ Chenango Forks



Dryden fell to 8-7 overall with a 54-34 loss at Chenango Forks.  Dryden was led by sophomores Ali Abel-Ferretti and Stu Stahlman who each finished with 7 points.  Forks was led by T. Borchardt who had 11 points, while Andrew Ziegenfus chipped in with 10 points.  Dryden would connect on a 3-point shot from Trevor Gardner on their opening possession to take a 3-0 lead.  After a defensive stop, Dryden missed 2 free-throws, then an uncontested lay-up which could have extended the lead to 7-0.  Unfortunately, Gardner's three would be the only Dryden points in the first quarter.  "We played timid for most of the game.  You have to be willing to attack teams, and we didn't do that tonight."  Dryden would cut the deficit to 4 points at half as they trailed 24-20.  "We had two very good possessions to end the half which resulted in lay-ups."  CF would outscore Dryden 19-4 in the second quarter.  "Chenango Forks has plenty of length, they disrupted several of our looks tonight."  "I was very pleased with the way our second group played tonight.  Their opportunity existed due to lackluster play from our first group, and they took advantage."  Dryden is at Southern Cayuga Wednesday, 5:30 JV tip.  Dryden JV's defeated CF 66-42.  Sophomore Anthony Nichols led Dryden with 23 points.
