Dublin's JV basketball squad picked up its first victory of the season on Wednesday, beating New Hampton, 45-29. Tenacious defense led to a number of fast-break opportunities for the Wildcats, who jumped out to an 11-1 lead after the first four minutes of the game, and never looked back. Ben Phillips carried the team with 17 points and five rebounds; Chad Foster scored 16, many of them coming on fine slashing moves to the bucket. Shutong Luo, Tyler Jones, Wenzhi Cai, Yunfan Ge, and Sasha Popov also contributed in the scoring column. The team hosts Brewster Academy for its first home game of the season--Saturday, December 10, at 3:30 pm.
