Cornwall Central had to skate by with only a two-point margin when they last took the court, which might have inspired the 22-point drubbing they dealt Monticello on Tuesday. The Cornwall Central Dragons were the clear victor by a 62-40 margin over the Monticello Panthers. Given the Dragons' advantage in MaxPreps' New York basketball rankings (they are ranked 224th, while the Panthers are ranked 787th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
When it comes to explaining why Monticello lost, don't look at Javien Williams. Despite the final result, he posted 12 points. The team also got some help courtesy of Jayden Berrios, who put up nine points and six rebounds.
