CORTLAND – The Bainbridge-Guilford Bobcats shot 15-for-17 (88 percent) from the free throw line Wednesday night against Chenango County and MAC Conference foe Greene Trojans. The Trojans shot a perfect 100 percent from the charity stripe but only only took four shots from the line for the entirety of the contest. As the Bobcats won by 13 with a final score of 43-34, one can’t help but notice that the free-throws were the difference.

These two teams had met twice prior to Wednesday’s game, both wins going in favor of top team in the New York State Rankings, Bainbridge-Guilford. However, Greene had held the Lady Bobcats to their lowest point total in the second meeting.

The Trojans head coach Dave Gorton and the head coach of B-G, Bob Conway, know either other very well as far as game strategy as the two have coached each against one another for more than a decade. Both can make adjustments in the game accordingly but the other will answer by making the change to match.

But this chess match was of a different setting as it was the Section IV Class C semifinal game at SUNY Cortland.

With the first seven minutes of the game going back-and-forth, Greene held close to trail by just 2 points.
