Streaks, good and bad, have marked the entire Liverpool boys basketball season, and it might be back on the upswing again. The Warriors had dropped three consecutive games prior to last Friday’s visit from Baldwinsville, but quick starts to each half put an end to that skid as it beat the Bees 69-48. A six-day break, mostly due to Regents exams, had refreshed Liverpool – as was evidenced in the first quarter. It on all kinds of shots and, at the same time, shut down B’ville’s attack as it roared to a 20-7 lead. The margin remained intact until the third quarter. Just like the first half, Liverpool found a comfort zone on both ends of the court, going on a 19-8 spurt that all but put the game away. Adam Misener led the charge, hitting a trio of 3-pointers on his way to 19 points for the night. Connor Rogers, with 12 points, and Ian Hamm, with 10 points, also hit double figures as Ben Peet added six points. Ben Trudell, with 10 points, was the only B’ville player to hit double figures. Liverpool, very much in contention for the CNY Counties League National division title with a 5-1 league mark (7-6 overall), will visit Auburn Tuesday before returning home Friday for a clash with Corcoran. In alumni news, Jesse Gates, playing at Onondaga Community College, was named the NJCAA National Player of the Week, just the fifth Lazer so honored. He had 33 points in an 83-72 win over Adriondack CC, then got 33 points again in an 82-71 win over Jefferson CC before picking up 11 points in a 92-76 romp over Tompkins CC.
