Foresters close first half on 14-0 run

They had a 14-0 run in the last 3:18 to go up 39-31 at the break. The teams were even on rebounds and Goshen had the edge on three-point shooting - 46% to 38%.

Huntington continued their run and were up 56-43 when the Leafs used a timeout. While Goshen finished with a better three-point percentage, HU led in overall field goal percentage 46% to 35% by the end of their 19-point win.

Marcus Northern had 17 points and three of Goshen's five steals for the night. Kamren Williams had 12 points, three rebounds, two assists and a steal. Saiveon Williams finished with nine points off the bench - all in the first half. He added four rebounds and Goshen's lone block.
