The Podium: Section 3, December 5

These full slates of games make sifting through tiring. If you're on here tonight, you had a damn good game. Boys first.

Gold: Chase LaCava had himself a night. LaFayette jumped up on top of Fabius-Pompey and had to hold the Falcons off in a furious 4th quarter to win 65-62, and Chase went in. Section 3 night-high 35 points for the Lancer standout, and I'm sure they'll be hoping for a lot more of that from him.

Silver: It's child abuse down low! When you mix a 6'9"ish or more, lanky frame with someone that has legitimate basketball skill, good touch, a jumper, all that.. sorry, Camden. You got torched. Lehigh commit Caleb Sedore, the first Division I basketball player at Pulaski, had 25 points and 17 boards for Class C Pulaski in their road win over Class A Camden in the battle of the Blue Devils, 54-39.

Bronze: Tyler Reynolds & Jordan Roland are the definition of a dynamic duo. It's nearly impossible to pick which one had a better game tonight for Westhill because each of them dominate in their own fashion. I have to pick one though, so I'll roll with Tyler. He had 9 rebounds to go with his 29 points, and 16 of those 29 came in the 2nd half, where they eventually put Jamesville-Dewitt away in a 81-60 decision. The team to watch in Syracuse, although they're a Class B, starts off the right way yet again.


Anddd time for the girls.

Gold: Frankfort took a loss to a Poland team that they probably shouldn't have lost to. They responded by beating a team I was surprised to see them knock off in Sherburne-Earlville, and of course Danielle Migliore had a lot to do with it. The stud junior gave the Marauders 30 reasons why they should've tried to keep the ball out of her hands. 30 points, 10 boards, and a 65-55 W!

Silver: Ice Cube would've classified this as a good day, and who am I to say no to Ice Cube? Annie Giannone started off her season the right way for Auburn. She's already got 1,000 points, so might as well spread the wealth (which she's done all high school anyway). Last night, she messed around & got a triple double! 11 points.. 12 assists.. 11 steals... I mean, try and beat that stat line. Go ahead. I'll wait!

Bronze: Sophomore Payton Noeller had big-time numbers for her Cato-Meridian squad in a matchup against Port Byron that always seems to have a little added passion to it. She picked up 22 points, 11 boards, and 3 steals, and her team came out with a 45-41 victory. Big nights on the stat sheet are nice, but they're even nicer in a close win.
