White Fights Off Solid Challenge in Athens

The Binghamton White travel team went to Athens, Pa., Saturday night, and came away with a hard-fought 58-40 win against a very pesky Athens team. Athens used precision passing and screening in the first half to hold a 25-20 lead at the break. Binghamton surged in the third to knot the score at 36-36 heading into the fourth. From there it was all Binghamton, as White outscored Athens 22-4 in the final 8 minutes of play.

Tyshawn High recorded a triple-double in his best overall game of the season (16 points, 16 rebounds, 10 assists, 8 steals) and Brandon Sprouse (20 points, 9 rebounds) scored 11 of his points in the fourth quarter.
