Congrats to the girls for making the championship game against Mt. Vernon..It is going to be a good game but if Mt. V play like they did against Carmel they are going to have a problem.. Good to see Hayley hit a 3 EVEN THOUGH SHE SHOULD NOT BE PLAYING AT ALL BCUZ OF HER RE-INJURY!!!!!! (My opinion) Venuto looked good and some others stepped up.. Saniya had a strong all around game but didn’t shoot well from the field.. She did have a lot of assist and 3ferocious blks.. 1 for a foul.. Ossining will get that Gold Ball, you heard it here first!!!!
“You heard it here first!!!” when picking the top seed to win is hysterical. Talent wise its a pickem, and if Chong and Venuto hit early threes, Ossining should take control and win. But I think MV has played tougher games this year so will be able to come out with the right mindset for lockdown D-fence…. prediction MV 56 – Ossining 51.
