Saturday Sports: Two Girls’ Frontier League Basketball teams in search of sectional titles

SYRACUSE, New York (WWNY) – Two Girls’ Frontier League Basketball teams were in search of sectional titles Saturday at Onondaga Community College.

Copenhagen was looking to keep Poland’s Logan Cookinham in check as she scores the first 3 points of the game.

For Copenhagen, it’s time to celebrate a Section 3 Title. Final score: Copenhagen 58, Poland 40.

”I think the difference in the game basically was our defensive pressure, which led to us getting out and being able to run the court, get some easy layups off some steals and just kind of relaxing us a little bit after that. Continuing that tenacious defense that we like to play and making our offense work from there. Obviously, Charli Carroll was a huge factor in that win,” said Copenhagen Coach Natalie Scott.

”Honestly, I’ve been working on that for a week, because sadly my twin tower got hurt in gym. A little accident happened which put a little more pressure on me because I didn’t have the person I felt most comfortable around with. So being able to take control really gave me more confidence as the game went on,” said Charli Carroll who scored 33 points in the win.

”Really exciting. I’m so excited I got to do it with this team because a lot of my friends are on it and we’re just super close and it’s a feeling I can’t describe. I’m so happy,” said Samantha Stokely.

Stokely had 9 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 steals in the win.

The Class B crown was up for grabs as General Brown faced Bishop Grimes. The Lions 21-2 on the season so far.

General Brown beats Bishop Grimes 47-26 to win the Section 3 Class B Championship.
