Taylor Clements would lead Newark with 16 points and 10 rebounds. The Reds open their season at 0-1.
In the consolation game of the tournament, Penn Yan would open up a big first half lead and hold on for a 50-42 win over host Waterloo. Penn Yan point guard Desmond Battin would score 18 points to go along with 3 rebounds and 4 assists while teammate Dylan Stape would score 15 to go along with 7 rebounds. For Waterloo, Jarrett Benedicks would finish with 14 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists in the loss. The Indian’s Jarrod Hay-Snyder would score 15 including three 3-pointers. Waterloo falls to 1-2 on the season while Penn Yan improved to 1-1.
In the championship game, Coach Zac Young’s Lyons Lions would roll to a 73-48 win over Weedsport behind 23 points from sophomore Kerel Kelly and 16 points from Justice Smith and Devin Franklin. Senior Ben Rockefeller would dish out 5 assists and pull down a team-high 10 rebounds. Devin Franklin brought the house down with a break-away one-handed dunk late in the first quarter.
