Several of the area’s top girls and boys basketball teams traveled to Ursinus on Sunday for the 16th annual ‘Hoops for Hope’ classic. Here’s a roundup of the action from all five games:
Game 2: Haverford 54, Notre Dame 42
The second quarter and third quarter ended with the same basic outcome, but it was how the Fords got there that differed quite a bit.
After falling behind by six points at the end of the first quarter against the Academy of Notre Dame, Haverford leaned on senior Caroline Dotsey in the second to make sure it didn’t get any further behind. By the time the senior forward finally scored after halftime, she was the fifth Ford to find the basket in the third quarter and Haverford had seized the lead.
Dotsey’s 24-point effort paced the Fords against an Irish team that hung around but couldn’t make enough shots to ultimately keep up.
