- 0:17There's no texting on the basketball court. Players have to
- 0:20communicate old fashioned ways, like calling out a teammate's name.
- 0:24That's how Ave Kittling Turner got in touch with senior
- 0:27Aubrey LAMBERTI to pass the junior the ball on the
- 0:30fast break during Oswego East's forty nine to thirty crosstown
- 0:34clash victory at Oswego on Friday night. I was just
- 0:38trying to get ahead of everybody and was calling her
- 0:41name because she always has the ball when I get
- 0:42down court. Kittling Turner said, I've been looking forward to
- 0:46this game all week. I didn't know how it was
- 0:48going to go, but I was excited because the energy
- 0:52everyone brings is so fun. It's such a fun game
- 0:54to play and I always look forward to it. Oswego
- 0:58East nine six five a twelve eleven lead with eight
- 1:01seconds remaining in the opening quarter. After Kittling Turner's put back,
- 1:06she'd bury a jumper to open the second quarter. Score
- 1:10on a layup with a little more than three minutes
- 1:12left in the quarter, and then finish the half with
- 1:14a layup with just a few seconds left. Her contributions
- 1:18were immense, as the Wolves outscored the Panthers eleven zen
- 1:21one in the second quarter to take a twenty five
- 1:24to eleven lead at halftime. We didn't believe it when
- 1:28they told us we didn't give up any points, so
- 1:30we were shocked, to say the least. Killing Turner said,
- 1:32we were anticipating in the pass and guarding them that way.
- 1:35Playing the defense we were playing, we definitely made them nervous.
- 1:38I feel like Aswego eight ten two four finally ended
- 1:43its scoring drought when Kendall Grant made the second of
- 1:45two free throws with six peety seven left in the
- 1:47third quarter to cut its deficit to twenty five to
- 1:50twelve and end the fifteen duro run. The Panthers wouldn't
- 1:53get any closer. KYLEA. Behar's reverse layup with four point
- 1:58two two left in the third quarter was Oswego's first
- 2:01field goal since Olivia East scored with one to eleven
- 2:03remaining in the first quarter. Bears basket came right after
- 2:08Oswego East senior Nicole Warbinski drained the first of a
- 2:11pair of three pointers in the third quarter that helped
- 2:14the Wolves break the game open, taking a thirty six
- 2:16to twenty lead into the final quarter. I feel like
- 2:20the first half I didn't play the best, but then
- 2:22I came into the second half and I had more energy,
- 2:24and I was like, I've got to give it to them,
- 2:26Warbinsky said. Oswego is our rival, as you know, and
- 2:30my energy got up by those two threes, which were
- 2:32a big part of our game. I feel like that
- 2:34was a stretch where we scored the most points and
- 2:37got a good lead on them. Warbinsky's gotten used to
- 2:40beating her school's biggest rival. I've been on varsity since
- 2:44freshman year, and we've played them every single year and
- 2:47won every single time, she said. So it's just that
- 2:50energy and having a big crowd is nice and pumps
- 2:53me up a little bit. The student section does talk
- 2:56a lot of crap, but I just let the game
- 2:58do the talking. Whinski led the Wolves with eleven points,
- 3:02Kittling Turner had ten points, and Lamberti had nine points
- 3:05and thirteen rebounds. I think I was just doing the
- 3:08little things, getting steals, going for rebounds, boxing out, all
- 3:12the little things to help us get the win. LAMBERTI
- 3:14said in Supperable, we were pressuring them to make their
- 3:18passes harder, and it kind of screwed up their offense.
- 3:21We've been working on improving our defense in practice, and
- 3:24I think that it showed. The Wolves held the Panthers
- 3:27to twenty six percent shooting eleven to forty three, while
- 3:30the Panthers also didn't help themselves by going seven of
- 3:33eighteen from the free throw line. We left a lot
- 3:36of points off the board. Panthers coach Benita Parson said.
- 3:39We really didn't stick to our game plan, which was
- 3:41to use our size advantage. We didn't box out well,
- 3:44didn't rebound well, and we gave up way too many
- 3:46transition buckets. You can't afford to have soft passes, to
- 3:49be weak with the ball, stuff like that. Parsons was
- 3:53coaching against her alma mater for the first time. The
- 3:55first year coach was a four year starter across town
- 3:58and the first player at the school to reach one
- 4:00thousand points. A bay Carreto was my coach when I
- 4:03was there, so I was there since his first year
- 4:05as a head coach, Parson said he's very smart and
- 4:08has a lot of experience and has always been a
- 4:10defensive guy. And their defense killed us today. They're scrappy
- 4:14and quick and very disciplined. That's really what got us.
- 4:18Put it on there five minutes, flip it over another
- 4:22five minutes. You're done. Then the key the key to this.
- 4:26You tent it, bring it inside, Tent it, put a
- 4:28couple piece of foil over it. Tanted for about five
- 4:31to ten minutes. That keeps it so juicy. And I
- 4:35gotta tell you, I've won my wife over on this.
- 4:38My son, who did not really eat meat, absolutely loves it.
- 4:41Asks for steak every week. So that is my steak advice.
- 4:45Peyton Johnson paced the Panthers with nine points and eleven rebounds.
- 4:50Ashley Cook and Bear each scored six points.
