H-T Boys Varsity Crush Stamford-Jefferson 5-1 at Home

TANNERSVILLE – The Hunter-Tannersville Boys Varsity team continues their early season streak with a 5-1 win over Stamford-Jefferson on Tuesday. Stamford-Jefferson was up 1-0 early in the first half, but H-T made a ferocious comeback after halftime. According to Coach Brent Dearing, H-T’s record stands at 7 wins and 3 losses, still one of their best starts in years. Dearing said, “When we come together as a team and play well, it’s a beautiful thing to watch.” 

Dearing gave respect to Stamford-Jefferson, who are doing their best with just 11 players, having lost several to injuries. 

I spoke to a Stamford-Jefferson player who said five of his teammates have been sidelined this year by injuries. H-T’s #3 Blake Cameron scored three goals with one assist; H-T’s #7 Ian Gilmore scored one goal with three assists; H-T’s #11 Rupert Conybeare scored his first varsity goal; and H-T’s #5 Leo Cruz and #9 Donovan Garcia both had one assist. 

According to Nate Lull, Stamford-Jefferson’s one goal was knocked in by an H-T player, so no Stamford Jefferson player gets credit for it.
