High School sports in the Lower Hudson Valley

Tuesday recap

December
4

Full schedule of games tonight. Here’s a look back on the highlights:

Stepinac 80, St. Edmund 42: Not a bad start for a team out to prove it’s better than it was last season. GW-bound Tony Taylor had 30 points as Stepinac led 21-1 after the first quarter and 44-10 at the half. Rashaad Slowley added 13 points.
Lincoln 54, Clarkstown North 42: Big third quarter keys the victory. Lincoln is 2-1 and on its way, I think, to a 14-win season.
Hen Hud 59, Somers 45: Balanced scoring by the Sailors, who took control early and were never in doubt. Devin Irwin had 22 points for Somers, which looks like it’s going to struggle.
Mamaroneck 45, Fox Lane 42: The Foxes will live and die by the 3-pointer and only had three tonight. Ugly game. Mamaroneck outscored Fox Lane 7-2 in the ‘comeback’ victory. Taylor Mondshein had 15 points in the victory.
Mount St. Michael 56, Regis 50: The funny thing is that Regis has far more Westchester kids than Mount has had in 5 years, yet Regis is a ‘non-local team’. Will Williams led Mount with 17 points. Sean O’Connor had 21 in defeat.
Keio 59, Tuxedo 36: Unicorns get on track behind 29 points from Takahiro Hashiyama.
Nanuet 75, Bronxville 67: Not sure what to conclude from this, mainly because I don’t know how good Bronxville is. Sean Carter had 21 points in the victory. Bronxville’s talented big man, David de la Torre, had 33 points.
Ossining 86, Nyack 73: I was at this game for the first half. Ossining hit just about every shot in the first quarter, including five 3-pointers, to build a huge lead. Nyack battled back and scored in waves. But the Indians just aren’t where they need to be yet. Brian Jones is a great talent. He’s a smart player with good body control and a very smooth demeanor. I like his game from 10-15 feet, although Nyack needs him desperately inside. The lack of continuity on the offensive end limits them. Nyack, which had two sophs and a freshman on the floor at one point, is going to be 10-15 points better in a month once it learns the game. Jones had 21 points, and Jeff Ward led Ossining with 22 points.
Solomon Schechter 49, Putnam Valley 42: Sol Schech wins its tournament behind 19 points from Aaron Prince.
John Jay-EF 73, Saunders 68, OT: Saunders rallied back in the second half to force overtime but came up short. Kyle Berk had 21 points for Jay, including 8-for-10 from the line.
Roosevelt 69, Ketcham 47: Interesting start for Roosevelt, which had glimpses of being a good young team last season. Wayne Custis had 18 points and Barry Watson added 17.
Scarsdale 68, Gorton 57: Shaky first half is turned into a smooth victory for the Raiders. David Zaitz scored 30 points and Lucas Radov added 14.
Hastings 85, Yonkers 35: This is the most dominant victory I’ve seen from a Hastings team in a few years. It’s even more eye-popping considering Yonkers scored almost 190 points in two games in the Eastchester tournament. Brian Farragher had 24 points and Alby Skrelji added 20 in the victory. Is Hastings a sleeper?
Poughkeepsie 66, Port Chester 56: Not many details, other than that Jordan Henriquez didn’t play and Poughkeepsie was up big at the half. Tough start for the Rams so far.
