Clinton 61, S-E 41 (Finals)

Unadilla Valley 47, Laurens 17 (consolation)

SHERBURNE – Unbeaten Clinton pounded Sherburne-Earlville on the boards and muscled past the Marauders for the S-E Tournament title Saturday evening.

Tournament MVP, Marquita Pring had 14 points in the victory and Lauren Conway, who did not play in Friday’s win over Unadilla Valley, added 11 points. “They just killed us on the glass, and we couldn’t handle them there,” said S-E coach Jeff Barry. “We couldn’t get any second shots, and we gave them too many.”

Erin Dowdall scored 11 points for S-E, who advanced to the finals with a victory over Laurens Friday, 62-22.

Unadilla Valley notched its first win of the season topping Laurens by 30 points in the consolation game. Katrina Benson had her second straight 10-point game for the Storm, while Theresa Lazarus added eight points, eight rebounds, and four steals. “We came out big in the first quarter and got a lot of points out of our press,” said UV coach Daryl Decker, whose club led 16-4 at the first turn.

Clinton topped UV 49-42 in the first game Friday.
