Greene 50, Seton Catholic Central 47

BINGHAMTON – Greene made amends quickly.

A day removed from a blowout loss to Norwich in its Stop DWI Holiday Classic opener, Greene used a strong fourth quarter to defeat Seton Catholic Central in the Regional Division II consolation game.

Zach Wentlent went 5-for-5 from the charity stripe in the last quarter, had seven points over those last eight minutes, and finished with 18 to lead his club. “I was really happy how we came back,” said Greene coach Rick Smith. “We settled down to have some good possessions at the end of the fourth quarter.”

Brandon Davis had nine points and nine rebounds in the win, while Justin Ekstrom posted a seven-point, nine-rebound, six-assist game.

Greene (4-2) hosts Chenango Forks Jan. 6.

Harpursville 64, Oxford 22

HARPURSVILLE – Harpursville, led by senior Miranda Drummond, jumped out on Oxford early in the final game of the Hornets’ round-robin tourney.

Drummond, a St. Bonaventure recruit next season, hit three threes and scored 12 points in an 18-2 opening stanza. “They have a high quality team, they’re number one in the state, and they played like that in the first and third quarters,” said Oxford coach Chris Palmer. “We played them even in the second quarter, and I hope that is something we can build on.”
