The
JV Girls improved their record to 6-2 with a win against Union Springs.
The girls are riding a 5 game winning steak and hope to continue their
steak against Groton Tuesday night. We had a great 1st half against
Union Springs Friday night, scoring 16pts in the first quarter. Our
press defense slowed down their ability to move the ball up the floor,
allowing us to create turn-overs. Turn-overs are great defensively and
when you can create
points of turn-overs its a plus. We were able create points off
turn-overs in the first half which helped us set up our press defense.
The girls took a 27-6 lead at half-time. I told the girls that they
needed to come up with the same intensity that they had in the first
half, but it wasn't all too easy for them in the second half. I credit
Union Springs defense in the second half. They came out with
aggressiveness which caused us to turn the ball over. We needed to be
patient against their zone, but instead rushed our shots and forced the
ball into spots that were not open. Offensively we did not click in the
second half, but the girls stayed together never giving up on each
other. Our defense has been strong all year which helped us through the
game in the second half winning 33-20.

From the Coach - VBBB Cortland Tourney
From Dryden Athletic Website:
Varsity Boys Basketball Cortland Tournament 12/28 & 12/29
Dryden improved to 4-2 overall and in IAC play with a 61-60 win over marathon at the cortland christmas tourney. Gage Ellis led Dryden with 20 points, while Bryan Norman chipped in with 14 points and Ali Abel-Ferretti added 11 points. Marathon got 27 points from Jeff Contri, 15 from Zach brandstadt and 11 from Kody Barry. "Defensively we were awful. Marathon played harder than us the entire game." Marathon would take a 23-18 lead after the first quarter. "We got off to a quick start, then got outplayed on both ends of the floor." With Dryden behind 60-58, they would use a timeout and draw up a set. "I was pretty sure we would still see a zone, so we werer pretty certain as to what we would do. The set was drawn up so Bryan would receive the ball in the paint off a pin-down screen, read the defense and play from there. Gage was where he was supposed to be, however Bryan was not available so we attacked Gage and he got a clean look from the corner. We were fortunate it went in." With Dryden up 61-60, they would use another timeout to set-up there defense. "We probably defended better on that possession than any other one." Kody Barry would have to force up a shot versus a double-team. The ball would get delected and Shawn Moore would gather the lose ball. "I'm glad we won, but we need consistency and leadership from this group or else we are going to be in tight games all year." Dryden plays Cortland in the title game. Dryden JV's beat Marathon by a score of 39-31. Noah Welgoss led Dryden with 16 points. Dryden JV's will also play Cortland in the title game.
