The first full night of Finger Lakes West boys varsity basketball action had everything fans of the league could hope for. Two games decided by one possession and a Honeoye Bulldog scoring his 1,000th point.
The Honeoye Bulldogs won their first game of the season on Wednesday night, travelling to southern Yates County to defeat Dundee, 45-36 in overtime. Dundee was held scoreless in the overtime period. Honeoye senior Jon Marble scored his 1,000th career point in the win. Marble finished with a game high 16 points in the win. The Bulldogs improve to 1-2 on the season and the Scots fall to 2-1.
Boys hoops: @HoneoyeSports tops Dundee, 44-36. Senior Jon Marble not only leads Bulldogs with 16 points, he scores the 1,000th point of his career. So when you see Marbs in the hallway tomorrow, a high-five or two is in order. 🤚🤛🤚

Bloomfield was the last Finger Lakes West team to take to the court to open the season after their opener against Lima-Christian was postponed. They would head into the Wolves den at HAC on Wednesday night to face a team that had played four, and won them all. Coach Jon Mastin’s Bombers snuck by undefeated HAC to bring home a 62-60 win. Pat Geitner lead Bloomfield with 23 points while Alexander Roach scored 15 points to go along with 12 rebounds and 4 assists. For HAC, Xavier Israel had 23 points and teammate Ryan Hilton cleaned the glass for a career best 23 rebounds in the loss.
The Marcus Whitman Wildcats headed down to the Vine Valley to face Naples and gutted out a 10 point win, 59-49. It was a sloppy game with Naples committing 16 first half turnover and Whitman shooting just 19% from the field in the second half. Riley McLoud scored 19 points and grabbed 9 rebounds, Jon Donovan scored 12 points, Tim Cornish dished out 4 assists, and Seth Benedict shot 9-12 from the free throw line for a total of 13 points in the win. Nick Green led Naples with 10 points.
South Seneca defeated Red Jacket 42-41 at the Jack Guinan Gynmasium in Ovid to open their season at 1-0.
The only other boys game in the Wayne-Finger Lakes last night saw Livonia visit Midlakes and defeat the Screaming Eagles, 62-49. Livonia improves to 2-0 on the season. Midlakes was led by senior point guard Bryce Burri’s 19 points while fellow senior Dan VanNostrand scored 14.
The Canandaigua Braves were also in action losing 70-67 at Pittsford-Sutherland.
