Canastota 47, S-E 34
SHERBURNE – Sherburne-Earlville battled back from a 12-point halftime deficit to take a one-point lead early in the fourth, but struggled at consistent offense in a loss to Canastota Monday.
Bridget Irwin’s three-point play with about six minutes left in the fourth quarter gave S-E (1-1) its lone lead of the second half. Canastota made hay down the stretch at the foul line pulling away with 12-for-19 shooting. “They’re a good team and their zone gave us some trouble. We made a lot of unforced turnovers,” said S-E coach Karen Mulligan. “Our defense definitely got us back into the game, but we didn’t make enough shots.”
Irwin scored nine points to lead S-E, who host Westhill Friday at 7:45 p.m.
