Dryden 68,
Windsor 59: On Saturday at Windsor, Dryden sophomore guard Trevor
Gardner banked in a three-quarter-court shot at the buzzer to send the
game to overtime, and the Purple Lions (10-5) rode the wave of momentum
to a non-league victory.
Six-foot-6 junior Ali Abel-Ferretti led the winners with 19 points and 12 rebounds, while 6-4 junior Stuart Stahlman chipped in 15 points and Gardner 13.
The Purple Lions — who defeated IAC rival Lansing on Friday, 61-35 — trailed the Black Knights by as many as 14 points in the fourth quarter before rallying.
Windsor’s Mike Beebe (21 points) made two free throws to give Windsor a 57-54 lead with 1.7 seconds to play in the fourth. The Black Knights then called a timeout to set up their defense for Dryden’s last-second shot. The Purple Lions had hoped to get the ball to Abel-Ferretti, but he was closely guarded near the mid-court line, so Kyle Burvee’s inbounds pass instead went to Gardner in the backcourt.
Gardner took one dribble and let fly, and the ball banked in off the backboard to send the game to overtime, which Dryden dominated, 11-2. (there is video of this some where)
“Windsor defended well on the final possession of regulation,” Dryden coach Kim Brown said. “Trevor just happened to make an incredible shot.”
In Friday’s win over Lansing, Stahlman and Gardner led the way for Dryden (7-3 IAC) with 16 and 10 points, respectively. Six-foot-3 sophomore Zach Walker had 13 points for the Bobcats (6-6, 3-6 IAC).
