Newfane took care of business in their home opener on Friday (barely). They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Alden Bulldogs , sneaking past 59-56. The Panthers have seen this before: they got the W the last time they saw the Bulldogs, too.
Newfane got their victory on the backs of several key players, but it was Brayden Seitz out in front who went 7 for 13 en route to 15 points plus eight rebounds and five steals. The team also got some help courtesy of Mac Capen, who dropped a double-double on 11 points and 16 rebounds.
Newfane smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 19 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least eight offensive rebounds in 24 consecutive games dating back to last season.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Newfane will face off against North Tonawanda at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Alden has already played their next match (against Newfane), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
