S-E 33, Unadilla Valley 31
SHERBURNE – Sherburne-Earlville won the final six matches, and 215-pounder Chris Pike held on for a 7-6 win over Justin Sigler to give the Marauders a close dual meet win over Unadilla Valley Thursday on S-E’s senior recognition night.
The Storm, a qualifier for the Section IV dual meet tournament, established a big lead early getting pins from Greg DuVall (103), Tyler Peet (112), and Dennis Murphy (130).
S-E rallied receiving two forfeits, and a pin from John Posson (189). “This was a good win for us and lot of fans were there from both schools,” said S-E assistant coach Brian Hicks. “The UV coach is a Sherburne-Earlville graduate, so it was nice to have him in town, and we’d like to get this rivalry going again.”
The Marauders compete in the Section III Class B tournament Saturday at V-V-S.

S-E 51, Hamilton 31
HAMILTON – Sherburne-Earlville stifled Hamilton’s offense holding the Emerald Knights’ leading scorer without a point, while extending its unbeaten record to 19-0.
Wilson Rose scored all 16 of his points in the first half as S-E moved out to 30-13 lead. Jon Pinney added 10 in the second half to wind up with a game-high 18 markers. “We really felt we didn’t play with the defensive intensity that we should the past two games,” said S-E coach Kevin Vibbard. “We kind of made a point to get that back tonight.”
Hamilton sharpshooter Matt Martin, who averaged 15 points a game coming in and had one contest where he made nine three-pointers, finished just 0-for-2 from the line. “Drew Doscher and Caleb Johnson took turns guarding (Martin), and we wanted to make sure someone was always in his face when he tried to shoot the ball,” Vibbard said. “I think it frustrated (Hamilton) and took them out of their offense.”
The Marauders close their regular season at Mt. Markham Saturday.
