S-E completes the sweep, boys defeat Vestal in UV Holiday Tournament

NEW BERLIN – The Sherburne-Earlville boys varsity basketball team traveled over the hill to Unadilla Valley high school for their championship matchup where they subsequently handed Vestal a five point loss at 57-52.

The Friday evening, Dec. 30, matchup between the Marauders and the Golden Bears of Vestal came to fruition after Vestal defeated Oneonta and Sherburne-Earlville defeated Unadilla Valley in the first round of the four team tournament.

With S-E leading by just three points at the half – 29-26 – the Marauders fell somewhat flat in the third to allow a mere one point game to materialize heading into the fourth and final period of play.

Up by one point at 39-38, S-E proceeded to rally in the fourth to stave off any hope of a comeback from Vestal – as the Marauders solidified their championship win by dropping 18 fourth period points. S-E was led in scoring in the game by Matt Hull who netted 15 points in the game while also going 4-4 from the line to help gain the late win. The Marauders would see three other athletes go into the double digit column for scoring as Sam Tuttle grabbed 13 points, Dawson Lagoe snagged 11 points, and Lane Hunter hit two three-pointers in the fourth to bring his total to 10 total points in the game.

Sherburne-Earlville will next see action on Tuesday, Jan. 3, at 7 p.m. when they head to Holland-Patent.
