Northwestern out to be 'opportunistic' vs. Stony Brook

After strong wins in each team's season opener, Northwestern and Stony Brook will square off in Evanston, Ill., on Friday night, looking to continue their success. Northwestern began its campaign with an 86-60 home victory over Binghamton on Monday in a game in which the Wildcats never trailed and led by double digits for the final 26 minutes. Northwestern's Jack Karasinski led all scorers with 24 points, tallying seven 3-pointers. Jake West and Angelo Ciaravino recorded double-doubles, with West notching 20 points and 12 assists, while Ciaravino had 13 points and 10 rebounds. West, who set a career high in points and was one assist shy of his personal best, said postgame that much of the offensive success came because of team chemistry. "I have the utmost confidence in all the guys, just because I know how much hard work they put in," he said. "You know, these guys are great guys, great character. They're in the gym all the time, and in practice they make all those shots." Northwestern shot 55.8% from the floor in the contest while holding the Bearcats to 40.4% shooting. The Wildcats took advantage of Binghamton's 12 turnovers, scoring 18 points off those opportunities. "If

Hononegah faces defending champion Fenwick in playoffs

ROCKTON — Like they say, you can choose your friends, but you can’t choose your enemies and that sure applies to the football playoffs. Hononegah (9-1) just happened to draw the 6A defending state champion Fenwick Friars (7-3) for their second-round opponent. Kickoff at Kelsey Field on Saturday is at 1 p.m. “They’re a well-coached team and they are fundamentally sound in every facet of the game,” Hononegah head coach Brian Zimmerman said. “They play in a really tough, private Catholic school league. Their three losses all come to top-10 ranked teams.” So how do the Indians hand them their fourth defeat? “We are going to have to play one of our best games, obviously,” Zimmerman said. “We’re going to have to really limit our mistakes. We’re going to have to be methodical moving the ball. Every possession, we’re going to have to keep moving the sticks. We can’t turn the ball over like we did in the first half against Willowbrook.” The Indians led only 6-3 at halftime against the Warriors last Friday, but ended up winning 32-3 as whatever offensive missteps they experienced in the first half were ironed out during the break. Hononegah’s defense was also terrific.
