HORNETS TRIM BROCTON
BROCTON — William Duliba hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 5 seconds remaining and Brocton’s last-chance shot went up just late as Forestville escaped with a 75-74 nonleague victory.
The Hornets (6-0) trailed by five with less than a minute remaining, but Jack Spengler scored to make it a three-point game. After a steal, Jacob Anders was fouled on a breakaway and sank a pair of free throws to make it a one-point game.
The Bulldogs (1-5) made it a two-point game with a free throw before Forestville’s go-ahead possession. Manny Sanchez used a Blake Waterman screen to find Duliba open in the corner for the eventual winning bucket.
A scramble ensued during Brocton’s final possession and the Bulldogs’ last-ditch effort went in, but was deemed too late to count.
Anders finished with 22 points and Duliba added 20 for the Hornets. Waterman had nine rebounds and four assists; Sanchez had three rebounds, six assists and four steals; and Spengler had six rebounds.
