SHERBURNE – In their last game of the regular season, the Sherburne-Earlville girl’s varsity basketball team clinched a share of the League championship honors last night, Feb. 14, as they triumphed over Canastota on a final score of 46-28.
The Marauder offense was firing right out of the gate, as they racked up 21 points in the first quarter alone, and raced out to an early 17-point lead. They tacked on nine more in the second quarter to go in at the halftime break winning by a scoreline of 30-9.
After that point, the game wasn’t much of a contest. Canastota attempted a comeback, but ultimately could not harness enough offensive prowess, and fell to the 18-point defeat, granting S-E a share of the Championship honors in the process.
Best in the crucial win for the Marauders were Lexi Elderkin, who finished as the game-high scorer, netting 14 points, and Tessa Cole, who finished with nine points, as well as six rebounds, and four steals.
