Boys League Scores: Week 5, 7/22

Team 518 69, Bellevue 27

518 jumped out to a big lead early and didn't take their foot off the pedal, and the playground style Bellevue played didn't help things against the league's top team. Undefeated Team 518 got layup after layup on the break en route to a massive 47-9 halftime lead. Saratoga Springs junior Adam Anderson had 14 of his game high 16 points in the 1st half, and Ravena-Coeymans-Selkirk junior Chad Zeoli had 10 of his 12 before halftime, including all 3 of their team's 3 pointers. Saratoga Springs senior Alex Skaine added 13 points and 10 rebounds, and Schalmont senior Zac O'Dell also had a double-double with 10 points and 11 boards. Ichabod Crane junior Joe Werner added to the dominance on the boards, finishing with 8 and 9. Canajoharie/Spire Institute postgrad Josh Gonzalez had a team high 11 for Bellevue.

Rising Stars 95, Marcella Appliances 72

Playing with only 5, Rising Stars were able to get it going in a hurry, and they didn't turn it down in the 2nd half. When Marcella Appliances tapered off in the 2nd half, Stars not only kept the high-scoring pace going, they picked it up some. Glens Falls freshman Joe Girard III dropped 39 points, an EST-high (at least for a couple hours). He had 23 of his 39 in the 2nd half, and his 8 threes are a new EST record. Troy senior Darius Holmes-Hines added a season high 22 points, and Argyle junior Kobe Lufkin added 18 points in the win.

Man Up 79, Bellevue 44

With some new blood on the court and an uptempo style, Man Up was able to break it open early against a depleted and defeated Bellevue squad just coming off of getting throttled by Team 518. Led by local product Mike Wine and some downstate flavor, they were able to build a 41-18 halftime lead and coast from there. Wine had 14 in the first half and 25 on the game, a game high. Logan O'Donnell, a 6'10" rising junior at John Jay making his season debut, had 10 in the first half and finished with 16. Rhinebeck junior Rob Veith also added 16 with 8 coming in the first half, and Our Lady of Lourdes junior Kevin Townes Jr. had 7 of his 9 early as well. Bellevue was again paced by Canajoharie/Spire Institute postgrad Josh Gonzalez, who had 10.

Team 518 80, Rising Stars 62

Team 518 was able to keep balanced and continue on with their 10th straight win against a game Rising Stars squad in the 8:00 game Wednesday. They played a quicker pace than normal throughout the evening en route to their highest scoring night (149 points in 2 games) of the year. They jumped out to a 12 point halftime lead, thanks in large part to South Kortright junior Tyler Lamport who had 12 of his game high 22 in the first half. Saratoga Springs senior Alex Skaine added 14 points, and showed a heightened comfort level playing at the wing this week in comparison to previous weeks. They pulled away and got the victory despite giving up 10 threes to Rising Stars' starting backcourt - Glens Falls freshman Joe Girard III continued his stellar night with 6 threes and 21 points, and Argyle junior Kobe Lufkin netted 18 with 4 treys.


Team 518 (10-0): Colby Fancher 2-4, Adam Anderson 5-2-12, Tyler Lamport 9-3-22, Jesse O'Dell 2-4, Chad Zeoli 4-8, Joe Werner 3-6, Zac O'Dell 4-2-10, Alex Skaine 7-14. Totals: 36-7-80.

Upstate Select 81, Man Up 75 (OT)

A performance for the ages by Oneonta senior Albert Odero propelled Upstate Select to their 2nd close W over Man Up this season. Each time these teams have played, Man Up has attempted a 3 in the final seconds to tie it. In the first game, Zach Radz' deep trey rimmed out. In this one, Guilderland junior Mike Wine buried a double-pump 3 with Odero draped on him with 3 seconds remaining to tie it and send it to overtime. Man Up would never get the lead in overtime, as Canton junior Louden Porter scored his only 2 points of the game on a layup off the jump ball and Odero scored on 3 consecutive possessions directly after.


Odero hit jumpers, got to the basket and finished at (and sometimes way above) the rim, and got numerous baskets posting up smaller guards. He set the tone with a couple thunderous dunks early and got to the rim at will to start the game. As the game went on and the defense's focus shifted to him, he continued to score - even with a much higher degree of difficulty. He finished with 48 points, a new EST record. 18 came in the first half, including Upstate Select's first 14 points of the night. He topped that with 24 of his team's 38 in the 2nd half and the 6 consecutive in OT.

Odero's counterpart, the aforementioned Mike Wine, had a phenomenal outing as well. The game continued to go back and forth through the closing moments with those two trading blows on tough shots. In the loss, Wine finished with a new season-high 32 points. 21 came in the second half, all going toward the rim before the game-tying 3.

For Select, Herkimer junior Derek Newman added 11 points, 8 coming in the 2nd half to provide a reliable release for Odero. Johnson City junior Patrick Garey had a hot streak in the later stages of the first half and finished with 10. For Man Up, Rhinebeck junior Rob Veith hit 3 threes and finished with 11, and Our Lady of Lourdes junior Kevin Townes Jr. added 10 points.

Upstate Select (2-8): Patrick Garey 4-10, Louden Porter 1-2, Derek Newman 2-7-11, Tyler Bertram 1-2-4, Albert Odero 21-4-48, Andrew Mason 3-6. Totals: 32-13-81.

Man Up (2-8): Cole Ackerman 2-2-7, Kevin Townes Jr. 3-4-10, Justin Houck 3-1-7, Mike Wine 11-9-32, Logan O'Donnell 4-8, Rob Veith 4-11. Totals: 27-16-75.

3-Point Field Goals: Upstate Select 4 (Garey 2, Odero 2), Man Up 5 (Veith 3, Ackerman, Wine).

Free Throws: Upstate Select 13/22 (Newman 7/8, Bertram 2/2, Odero 4/10, Mason 0/2), Man Up 16/18 (Wine 9/11, Townes Jr. 4/4, Ackerman 2/2, Houck 1/1).
