Basketball Update Week 2


Week 2 brought another victory for our SCS Anchors as the 6th grade girls rolled over Sister's Academy 12 to 4. A suffocating trapping defense, total board control, solid passing on offense and multiple fast breaks proved too much for the opposition. Scoring was led by Paige Purtell, 6, Mia Ly Doucet-Nguyen, 4 and Malajza Boone added a bucket. 

7th grade girls had a tough game against very strong St. Mark team this weekend but fought hard for 28 minutes and refused to be shut out. Scoring was shared by Harper Rodeghero, Mia Ly Doucet-Nguyen and Mikayla Williams with a basket each. 

Our 4th grade girls, playing in only their 2nd CYO League game ever, didn't come away with a "W" BUT did hold their opponent to half the points scored against them the week before. Improvement in their defense is starting to show. I feel a win is coming soon. 

7th grade boys played hard but lost a close one 15-13 to big rival, St. Ursula, when a last-minute shot somehow avoided the ring. Our Anchors were led in scoring by Michael McMenamin's, 6, Cameron Stoner's, 5 and Chance Hayden's, 2 along with solid contribution defensively from Cameron Sibiski and Kobe Barrett to help keep it close. 

4th grade boys playing in their first CYO game ever got a taste of some tough competition but showed solid ball movement, as well as playing their positions on offense. Something to build on. Christos Christopoulos and Mason Saraullo found the ring in the 2nd half, contributing 2 points each. 

5th grade boys, also playing in their first game this season, ran into a tough St. Ursula team but a late basket by Grayson Ho prevented a shutout. This team is loaded with talent and looking to rebound this weekend. 



BASKETBALL UPDATE: WEEK ONE 

SCS Anchors closed out the first weekend of the season with two wins. The 8th grade boy's opportunistic offense proved too much against a formidable opponent in St. Louis School,  posting a 23-17 victory. Quinn McCartney led all scorers with 15 points, Nick Purtell notched 4 and Payne "Welcome Back" Burton, added 3. This was a total team effort and there is a rumor that the motto of the 8th grade Anchor team is "we prefer to be recognized not as individuals, but as a team whose individual accolades mean nothing". 

The 6th/7th grade team secured a hard-fought win over St. Margarets, 13-9, in a sweet "payback" victory. The Anchors scoring was led by Jack Bailey and Cameron Stoner's 5 points each and Michael McMenamin's 3 points and tough interior defense. Jaxson Basil also helped the Anchors get their first win of the season with some tough defense limiting St. Margaret's to just three 2nd half points. 

Our 6th and 7th grade girls' teams faced two very tough teams in their first games of the season but picked it up in the second half of each game especially on defense. Scoring for 6th grade was led by Emma Mulligan with 6 points, while Paige Purtell poured in 5 including a 3-point swisher. 7th grade girls scoring was led by Paige Purtell with two 3-pointers (giving her 3 for the day) and a bucket, while Harper Rodeghero added 2 more. 

Our 4th grade girls playing in their first CYO game ever, were rudely introduced to a St. Mark team playing on their home court. The experience of the opponent was just too much to overcome as our Anchors were shutout. However, Coach Stavros did see some bright spots and is confident progress is right around the corner.
