Catskill outlasted Maple Hill 47-36 in an exciting game between the top two teams in the Patroon Conference. Janay Brantley led the Cats with 21 points.

The Cats had great energy right from the tip off and sprinted out to a nice first quarter lead 11-4. They clamped down on the Wildcats with a superb defensive effort and were in the drivers seat throughout the period. Catskill playing with only seven players lost Jayden Lewis less than ten seconds into the game as she hurt her leg after scoring the opening basket of the contest. 

Maple Hill did an excellent job defending Catskill's Janay Brantley holding her scoreless for the first twelve plus minutes of the game. Brantley averaging thirty points a game entering tonight struggled to find her shot most of the night due to great Wildcat defense.

Maple Hill trailed the entire way but managed to close the gab to six points early in the fourth quarter. However, Janay Brantley made a huge three pointer out of a time out to push the lead back up to 9.

The offenses came to life in the fourth quarter as they generated a net scorching 36 points.
