With the Eagles' big men in foul trouble, Dryden's Ali Abel-Ferretti scored 17 second-quarter points as the Lions took to intermission leading by 31-18. The hosts shot 8-for-27 in the first half — 14-for-27 thereafter.

Boys Hoops Sectionals and Girls All-Stars
From Ithaca Journal
ITHACA – After having prevailed in their conference championship-game meeting last Friday, the Moravia girls' basketball team will be able to give Newfield a rematch — as long as the Blue Devils win on Tuesday night.
The Section 4 girls' basketball tournament opens on Tuesday with 16 games in classes A through D, including a first-round matchup between 12th-seeded Harpursville (9-10) and No. 5 seed Moravia (15-4). Coach John Crossgrove's Blue Devils outlasted Newfield, 54-53, in a highly entertaining Interscholastic Athletic Conference Small School final last week at Tompkins Cortland Community College, and can earn a quarterfinal date at fourth-seeded Newfield (14-5) with a win over the Hornets.
Newfield is one of four teams in Class C to have earned a first-round bye; the others are top seed Bainbridge-Guilford (15-2), second seed Watkins Glen (14-4) and No. 3 Lansing (13-5). All four quarterfinal games are slated for 7 p.m. Friday.
Among Tuesday's first-round games in Class C is an all-IAC affair between 11th seed Union Springs (10-9) and sixth seed Candor (13-6), set for 7 p.m. at Candor.
A pair of IAC schools will open sectional play in Class D on Tuesday — third seed Southern Cayuga (11-6) hosts 14th seed Gilboa (10-8) and seventh-seed Odessa-Montour (8-9) hosts No. 10 Schenevus. Should O-M and SC both win two games, they would meet in the Class D semifinals on March 3 in Oneonta.
The Class D girls' tournament, which features 17 teams this year, officially got under way on Saturday with a "play-in" game in which 16th seed Stamford defeated No. 17 Hunter-Tannersville, 47-31. Stamford earned the right to take on top seed Delhi (16-2) at 7 p.m. Tuesday in Delhi.
• The Section 4 boys' tournament tips off on Wednesday with 17 games in classes A through D, including an all-IAC Class B quarterfinal featuring seventh seed Dryden (11-7) at second seed Whitney Point (17-1), which is coming off a 59-50 loss to Watkins Glen in the IAC Large School title game last Thursday at TC3. The Dryden-WP winner will face either sixth seed Seton Catholic Central (10-7) or third seed Oneonta (14-4) in Saturday's Class B semifinals.
Wednesday's Class C first-round games include ninth seed Lansing (6-10) at eighth seed Greene (9-8) and an all-IAC contest that has 11th seed Marathon (8-10) at sixth seed Trumansburg (11-6). The Greene-Lansing winner will travel to top seed Watkins Glen (15-1) on Saturday, while the Marathon-Trumansburg winner will travel to third seed Notre Dame (14-4).
In Class D, Odessa-Montour (7-10) travels to IAC rival Southern Cayuga (7-10) in an 8-9 matchup in Poplar Ridge. The winner is likely to face top seed Delhi (16-2) in the quarterfinals, barring an upset at the hands of 16th seed Jefferson (8-8).
IAC Girls All-Stars: Sophomore guard Mariyah Byrd, who helped lead Newfield to the South Small title and a berth in the Small School title game, is this year's division most valuable player. The league announced its first- and second-team all-stars over the weekend.
Byrd and fellow first-team all-star Sierra Henry, a junior guard, both averaged 16 point this season for the Trojans. They were joined on the all-star first team by Candor's Rachel Barnhart and Mikayla Short, Odessa-Montour's Gillian Clark and Spencer-Van Etten's Dallia Ronnick.
In the South Large, co-MVP's were Waverly's Kiana Manuel and Kylie Newman. The rest of the first team included Elmira Notre Dame's Kaylyn Curran and Mia Herlan, Watkins Glen's Madison Gates and Amanda Pike, and Newark Valley's Hannah Luszczek.
In the North Large, Brittney Randall of Whitney Point was named MVP. She was joined on the first team by teammates Graci Standish-Warpus and Jessica Cafferty, who had 27 points in the Wolverines' 59-56 defeat of Waverly in the IAC Large School final last Thursday at TC3.
Other first-teamers included Lansing twins Shea and Maura McCartney, Trumansburg's Anna Shelley and Dryden's Erin Daley.
In the North Small, Marissa Hingston of overall Small champ Moravia was named MVP, and was joined on the first team by teammates Zoe Barrington and Hannah Bennink, along with Southern Cayuga's Emily Kopp and Adrianne Torea, and Union Springs' Samantha Walawender.
