Wood Ridge Falls To Dayton 72-54!

East Orange……..Wood Ridge style of play is no secret to the North Jersey area! First good shot,Take It! It can be a layup,but more likely than not,it’s a”triple”! It has won them alot of games, but the old saying is” You live by the three, you die by the three! Tonight Wood Ridge died by it in their 72-54 loss to Dayton H.S. of Springfield in the North 1 Group 1 Championship! The Blue Devils shot 6 of 28 from behind the arc and was outrebounded 46 to 19 by Dayton! Senior Aaron Williams(pictured) was the leader for the Bulldogs, scoring 23 points with 5 rebounds and 3 steals and throwing down a couple crowd pleasing dunks! Senior Kevin Kirk also played well scoring 18 points and grabbing 9 boards! Wood Ridge always seemed to be one shot away from getting in the game, because if you know their style it felt like it was just a matter of time! But nobody besides Sophomore Mike Gibney could knock down shots! Gibney led them in scoring with 22 points and Junior Angel Colon added 15, but the other players could not find their rhythm! Junior forward Vin O’Bierne scored 11 points and added 7 rebounds for Wood Ridge! Dayton’s Ronnie Herman added 14 points and Kareem Jackson grabbed 12 boards!
