Queensbury Uses Strong Second Quarter to Defeat Amsterdam, 48-41

For Galway, Samuel Reedy was the top scorer with 16 points, while Chase Maher and Hayden Flint each chipped in 11. Galway started strong but struggled to find offensive consistency in the middle quarters, scoring just 18 points combined in the second and third quarters.
