SOL Patriot Division
Bensalem 53, Pennsbury 47
Jaidyn Moffitt scored 21 points and Bensalem used a big third quarter to stretch its lead and then pull away for the key SOL Patriot win over visiting Pennsbury Tuesday night.
“Jaidyn Moffitt had a monster game,” said Owls coach Ron Morris. “We knew going in that we could possibly win that battle. Jaidyn did a really good job tonight using his size, strength and speed.
“Offensively, Noah (Morris) had a big 3. Antonio (Morris) had two big buckets in the fourth quarter, and we made some foul shots down the stretch to pull out a big league victory in a great battle.”
Not surprisingly, this one came down to defense.
“It was a tough SOL battle,” Morris said. “Pennsbury-Bensalem is always a good game. We have similar philosophies. We’re defensive-minded coaches. Coach (Wes) Emme does a great job over there preparing his guys. They’re always in the right position, they play really hard, so we knew coming in it was going to be a tough battle.
“It’s a game of runs. We went up early, they came back. They went up two in the second quarter, we tied it at halftime. Amir Drummond had a big layup going into halftime. We stretched the lead to eight or nine, they cut it to three, and we were able to handle their pressure really well. We moved the ball extremely well, got a couple of layups at the end.
“We had key defensive stops down the stretch and team rebounds in the last two minutes to help us secure the win. The best thing about this team (is) on any given night, any player can have a big offensive game.”
Noah Morris was also in double figures with 10 points.
Mike Roccograndi led Pennsbury with 19 points.
“We did a good job defensively,” Morris said. “Connor Taddei is a heck of a shooter. We lost him twice, and he buried two 3s. We were keying in on him. Credit to their guys. (Mike) Roccograndi hit some shots, made some foul shots down the stretch. Grayson (Gozum) hit some big 3s in the fourth quarter.
“We knew they never go away, but our guys, I’m so proud of them. They stuck with it, kept working hard, battling and battling. We had multiple guys sick, and we got some great performances that were a shell of themselves, so it was good to see them fight through that.”
Bensalem (3-0, 3-0 SOL) will be on the road at Harry S Truman on Friday.
Pennsbury (4-1, 2-1 SOL) will travel to Council Rock South on Thursday.

The Golden Hawks hit three key 3-pointers in the fourth quarter and went 6-for-6 from the free throw line as well, as they pulled away from rival CR North on Tuesday night.
“I think we hung in there,” said Hawks coach Andrew Rogers. “Obviously, we know going into the game, it’s a rivalry game. Coach (Derek) Wright does a terrific job. We knew going in it was going to be a fight. We stressed, keep having energy, stay together and they did a good job of that, especially in the second half.”
CR North led 36-35 heading into the fourth quarter. There, however, CR South outscored the Indians 21-6 and pulled away for the win.
“It was close pretty much throughout,” Rogers said. “It wasback and forth throughout fourth quarter, were able to get some stops and finally get a lead. We positioned ourselves to play smart basketball down the stretch.”
Gabe Cerulli led CR South with 14 points, including seven in the fourth quarter, as well as six rebounds and four assists. Ryan Wekluk scored all 12 of his points in the second half.
“We got a lift from everybody tonight,” Rogers said. “Seven guys scored. Ryan Delp, a sophomore, came in in the second quarter and hit two big 3s, and eight points total. That was a huge lift for us.
“Ryan Wekluk, we rely a lot on him for defense, when he gives us lift on both sides of the ball it’s huge for us. Everybody had an impact.”
Oliver Schaefer scored 18 points to lead CR North.

SOL Colonial Division
Central Bucks East 66, Pennridge 42
The Patriots remained unbeaten with a solid road win at Pennridge Tuesday in a balanced effort that saw eight different players score points.
“We are getting significant contributions from eight or nine guys right now, which is a strength for us,” said CB East coach Erik Henrysen. “We seem to enjoy playing for each other and that’s a recipe for success.
“Saturday, (Jacob) Cummiskey got his fourth foul, so we sat him. He was a maniac on the bench cheering for his teammates. (Miles) Demby has been non-stop motivating the guys while he recovers from injury. This team would run through a wall for me right now. They’ve been really fun to watch.”
CB East jumped out to a 19-10 lead after one, and that lead was 30-20 at halftime. A 17-11 third quarter blew the game wide open.
“Pennridge was coming off of a very good win at Souderton,” Henrysen said. “We thought it was important to focus defensively. I thought our defensive effort in the second half was good and allowed us to get out in transition.”
Tyler Dandrea led the Patriots with 16 points, Cummiskey added 14 and Justin DiRoberto had 11 points.
Xavier Peters had 15 for Pennridge, while Charlie Rising had 12 points.

Central Bucks West 43, Central Bucks South 35
After a tough week last week, the Bucks took care of business at home Tuesday with an eight-point win over rival CB South
“We defended well,” said CB West coach Adam Sherman. “We were scoring pretty easily too, but then we were sloppy in the third. We were sloggy in two little segments. We could’ve played cleaner basketball.”
Coming off of losses to North Penn and CB East, the Bucks were looking to bounce back Tuesday.
“We felt like both were winnable games,” Sherman said. “East was a two-point game in the fourth quarter. We were winning the whole time against North Penn.
“We’re just trying to get better each game. We’re learning. The secret for a good team is to learn from your mistakes. If you’re still making the same mistakes, you’re not getting better.”
The Bucks led Tuesday’s game 14-5 after one and 24-15 at halftime, and they did so with balanced scoring. Julian Phillips finished 1ith 13 points, while Roman Kulesa and Sam Jankowski finished with nine points each.
“Jules was pretty good offensively,” Sherman said. “Sam gave us some good rebounding that we needed. Everybody else was really good. Defensively, as a team, we played really good.”

Souderton 61, North Penn 36
The visiting Indians did a whole lot right in Tuesday’s win over the Knight, opening up a 27-20 halftime lead and then putting the game out of reach with a big fourth quarter.
“We just played a complete game,” Souderton coach Okoteh Sackitey said. “The kids were really hungry, they were really focused. They were ready for a challenge. North Penn is a good team, and we were just excited for it and ready to go.”
Behind eight points – which included a pair of 3s – from Chanse Salone, the Indians opened up an 18-14 lead after one quarter. They added to that lead with a 9-6 second quarter. Bill Sackor had six points in the quarter, 10 in the first half.
“It was important for us to get off to a good start,” Sackitey said. “Chase Salone hit a 3 early to get us going. We got out to a 7-0 lead, and they called a timeout. We just stayed focused. They made some runs, they cut it to 18-14 at the end of the first quarter, and they cut it to two in the second quarter. It was 22-20, and we made a 5-0 run to close out the half.
“Chanse was in foul trouble – he had two fouls in the first quarter. Trey Bui came in, stepped up and did a great job playing for Chanse. Kahlil Williams did a good job playing in the first half when Clinton (Kikonjo) was in foul trouble. We just put the next guy in at those positions. We had each other’s backs, and we were able to get into halftime with a 27-20 lead. We were happy with that considering the foul trouble we had.”
Any thoughts of a North Penn comeback were all but put to rest in a third quarter that saw the Indians go on an 18-7 tear to go on top 45-27 heading into the final frame on their way to the decisive win.
“We came out in the third quarter, and our press really got to them, and we were able to turn them over quite a few times in the third and turn those turnovers into quick offense in transition,” Sackitey said. “Bill Sackor and Chanse Salone led the way, finishing in transition and facilitating in transition, but Nolan Watkins deserves credit for the way he was flying around on defense in the press. He did a good job of finishing as well in the third quarter.
“It was team defense, it was everyone on the same page. Danny Dyches was talking a lot in the back of our defense, and everyone was moving five-as-one on defense. It was really nice to see. They took care of it and pushed it on offense too. That’s where we broke it open on the third off the press.”
Salone’s 17 points – which included three 3-pointers – led the Indians. Sackor added 16 points, and Watkins also finished in double figures with 11. Bui added seven points, and Dyches had six.
For the Knights, Ahmaar Godhania led the way with 17 points – 10 in the first half. Norman Gee and Gabe Altemus both added six points.

SOL Liberty Division
Upper Dublin 62, Abington 52
Tied at halftime, the Flying Cardinals exploded with a 17-6 third quarter to take control of this one and then held on down the stretch for the key SOL Liberty road win on Tuesday.
“It was a really intense, physical environment,” said Upper Dublin coach Derek Brooks. “It was back and forth most of the game, a very up and down game. I’m very proud of the guys. This was a big test for them. I wanted to see if it was a deer in headlights situation, or if they’d be in attack mode, and they were in attack mode. The boys did a good job.”
UD had a ton of offensive balance all night, and in that third quarter, Brady Fogle, Idris Rines and Chris Kohlbrenner all hit 3-pointers.
“Midway through the third, I don’t know what the run was, it might have been like a 9-0 run,” Brooks said. “They led, we came back and tied them at halftime, it was back-and-forth.
“I want to say it was like a 9-0 run. We had one or two layups. Idris Rines hit a 3, Kohlbrenner hit a 3 and we went up 11.
“Abington came storming back (in the fourth). They fought hard and got it to within four. They have so many guys that can attack off the dribble. It’s so hard to have enough defenders to keep them in front of you. We were fortunate enough to hang on. We had a couple free throws, a couple stops, and it was like a six-point game with about 40 seconds left.”
Ryan Mulroy led the Cardinals with 18 points, including 13 in the second half. Rines had 15 points and Fogle finished with 14 points.
“Ryan Mulroy was shot out of a cannon tonight,” Brooks said. “He plays so hard, athleticism and physical fearlessness. He played great tonight.”
Aaron Jones led Abington with 16 points on 6-for-9 shooting, 3-for-4 from 3-point range, with four rebounds and three steals. Jaden Flournoy came off the bench to score 15 points and grab four rebounds.
The Ghosts were 20-for-59 (33.8 percent) from the field and, 7-for-22 (31.8 percent) from 3-point range.

Cheltenham 63, William Tennent 52
Josiah Hutson scored a game-high 25 points, 15 in a first half that saw the Panthers – who trailed by one after the first quarter – go into halftime with a 31-29 lead.
It was still a two-point game heading into the fourth quarter when the Panthers turned up their defensive intensity, outscoring Tennent 19-10 to earn the hard-fought win.
“Tonight, Josiah Hutson got it going early, but it was the defense of our guys down the stretch, collectively looking to get stops, that allowed us at the end to pull it out,” Cheltenham coach Patrick Fleury said. “I would envision Tennent as a playoff team. They’re a good team. It was good for us to come out with the victory.”
While Hutson had the hot hand for the visiting Panthers, teammate Osei Johnson also had a big first-half with 10 points, For Tennent, Kirby Mooney scored 10 in the opening half while Chris D’Ambra and Tony Pople both had a pair of 3s in the opening half.
“They came out very hot,” Fleury said of Tennent. “Obviously, they’ve got a thousand-point scorer. They’ve got length, they’ve got shooters. They played their game.
“It was a tight game. The fourth quarter became about getting stops. We were able to do that. I think our biggest thing is blocking out the distractions and negative energy and just staying true – anything team-wise is better than anything individual. That’s not to say we won’t make individual plays but just understand that from top to bottom – it’s a collective effort. Just maintaining bench decorum, staying positive – those are things we try to focus on more than anything.”
Mooney scored 14 points in the second half and accounted for all 10 of his team’s fourth quarter points. His 24 points led Tennent while D’Ambra added 12 on four 3s. Imad Abunima and Tony Pople both had six points.
For Cheltenham, in addition to Hutson, Johnson had 15 points while Kamal Mason added 11. Kevin Addison-Anderson chipped in eight points.
Tuesday’s win was the fourth in five games for Cheltenham, which is coming off a 12-11 season.
“Last year was a little bit of a struggle obviously, but we’re learning,” Fleury said. “We just have to value every day. I think today was one of those days that we did. I wasn’t too pleased with our practice Monday, and that’s what we have to focus on. Not just the outcomes of Tuesdays, Fridays and sometimes Saturdays but all the days leading up to that that can make us successful.
“Obviously being from (Cheltenham), it’s always great to work with our kids because I see them as my own. We’re just looking to push forward. We’re in a better position than we were last year, but we’re far from where we need to be. We’ have to enjoy the moment now – I learned that from last year, but we have two more games this week and just making sure we stay focused on that.”
