It was the St. Peter’s HS product’s only basket of a 1-for-9night.He calmly sank the subsequent free throw to break the 66-66 deadlock.“They defended that play well all night,” said Tibbs, who has made a habit of late-game heroics this season.“I wouldn’t have guarded me either, the way I was going.”Freshman guard Bloochy Magliore saved the struggling Dolphins earlier in the second half, nailing five 3-point shots as the home team rallied from a 45-35 deficit to take its first lead since the opening minute, 55-54, with eight minutes remaining.Page 102 of 157
Magliore scored 18 of his 22 points after intermission after struggling through a 2-for-8 first half when hemissed all four 3-point attempts. He made 5 of 6 from long range in the second half.“That’s Bloochy,” said Tibbs. “Once he comes off the bench and hits that first one, the basket looks like theocean. We just try to get him the ball.”CSI took Lehman’s best shot. The Lightning dropped to 5-3 in CUNY play and 10-9 overall, but obviouslyhave to be considered title contenders in a conference filled with parity.“They’re very talented,” said CSI coach Tony Petosa of the visitors. “They’re a very good offensive team.They’re athletic. They rebound.“The depth of the CUNY this season worries me. Every game has the potential to be like this game. There’sno question our record makes us somewhat of a target, too.”Petosa credited freshman reserve Louis Valdes for 16 strong minutes off the bench. The Mt. Olive, N.Y.,product had three points and three rebounds and played admirable interior defense in the second half.“We went small and Valdes did a lot of very good things,” said Petosa.So too did Tibbs and Young, who teamed up for the game-winning play.“We have great chemistry,” said Tibbs. “He set a great pick. I know exactly where Jordan is going to be.That’s our bread-and-butter play.”And Tibbs has been the money man.“You want the ball in his hands at the end,” said CSI assistant coach Chris Peterson. “You know he wants it.”NOTES: Junior guard Dale Taranto had 14 points, nine assists and four steals for the Dolphins ... CSIstruggled with 22 turnovers and a chilly 9-for-20 free throw shooting exhibition ... Victor Garcia toppedLehman with 19 points while Jonathan Batista added 17.
