Norwich 43, Windsor 39
WINDSOR – Norwich had its big guns ready for the end of Tuesday’s dual meet with Windsor.
Losing by eight, defending state champions Tristan Rifanburg and Frankie Garcia picked up pinfall victories to give the Tornado a come-from-behind win.
“It’s pretty nice when it comes down to Tristan and Frankie,” said Norwich coach Terry Hagenbuch.
Rifanburg (152) and Garcia (160) wasted little time earning their wins. Rifanburg earned a pin in 64 seconds, and Garcia notched his own pin in just 43 ticks.
Norwich started strong getting a decision win from Trey Muserallo at 170 pounds. Windsor then surged into the lead with a pair of pins and forfeits at 220 and 285 pounds.
“It’s tough giving up 12 points, but we’ll get a couple guys back soon and be even tougher,” Hagenbuch said.
Brenden Gager (106) won by forfeit beginning a string of four straight Norwich wins. Dalen Geislinger (113) and Ty Rifanburg (126) sandwiched pins around Zach Mills’ major decision victory at 120 pounds. Cole Rifanburg (138) also won by pinfall.
Norwich competes in the Owego Duals on Friday and Saturday.

Unadilla Valley 63, Unatego 59
NEW BERLIN – Unadilla Valley’s Ethan Grey picked the right night to have a career-best scoring performance.
Grey started quickly with 10 points in the first quarter, and finished with a team-high 27 in UV’s four-point win.
Grey hit two free throws with 17 seconds left giving his club a 61-56 lead. After Unatego’s Tanner Winchester drained a bomb of a three-pointer, UV junior guard Ryan Postma wrapped up the game with two more free throws.
Winchester had 31 points on the evening as UV tried one thing after another to stop the hot-scoring Spartans player. “He’s a tough guy to guard,” said UV coach Matt Osborne. “He got to the basket and to the free throw line a lot.”
UV’s Brett Hanslmaier found his offensive touch in the second half scoring 13 of his 15 points, and he also grabbed a team-high 10 rebounds. Postma added 13 points and seven boards.
The Storm play at Delhi Friday.

Delhi 52, Bainbridge-Guilford 24
BAINBRIDGE – Scoring-deprived Bainbridge-Guilford fell to Delhi for the second time this season Tuesday night.
Delhi led by 13 points after three quarters, and more than doubled that advantage with a 21-6 final stanza. “We weren’t executing our offense well, we forced the issue, and things got out of hand,” said B-G coach Greg Warren. “They had a huge size advantage on us, but despite that, I thought we defended well.”
Zach Smith scored 10 points for B-G, who host Afton on Thursday.
