Philly WBB Summer League: Black (Jefferson) Re-Claims Top Seed For Playoffs

By Mel Greenberg @womhoopsguru and Bob Heller

HATBORO, Pa. — For the second straight year, Team Black, also known as D2-Jefferson, will head into the playoffs as the top seed in the Philadelphia/Suburban NCAA-Certified Women’s Basketball Summer League here at Kelly Bolish Gym, home of the AAU Renegades.

Of course, when that happened 12 months ago, Black had an unbeaten record in the ten-team league only to be felled in the championship by the Rams’ top winter rival in the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference, USciences, known here as Team Maroon.

Those two continued to go at in their NCAA season, both earning Top 10 rankings and beating each other once followed by Jefferson gaining a one-point win in the CACC title game in overtime.

USciences got to host the Regional in which the Rams were eliminated in the first round and the host Devils one round later.

This summer, more teams came into the mix here with Team Red, composed primarily out of D 2 West Chester and D3 Gettysburg, pulling an early upset of Maroon  and going unbeaten until Black won last  Thursday in overtime to deprive Red of a top seed clincher and gaining the top spot tiebreak if they finished knotted.

Sly Blue, also known as D2 Holy Family, also showed strength with an early one-point win over Maroon, which then became more powerful down the stretch upsetting Black with its one loss.

Thus, heading into Tuesday’s final five-game nightly card, in a rarity, the playoff picture unlike past seasons was very much in focus, to the point that for the second time in less than a week everything that was in place before the action got under way remained as such with just two two-way ties easily settled on head-to-head outcomes.

Completing the standings in a rarity after the first place tie between Black and Red, with Black (8-1) getting the top spot, and third place tie between Sky Blue (7-2) and Maroon going to Sky Blue, the rest of the finish had six teams in stand-alone spots with each just one game in front of the team behind it from five all the way down to 10th-place Golden Sun (0-9), which was winless but the D3-Arcadia group put up a very good fight in several games.

Colleague Bob Heller is back with the five-game details but as far as the implications, the top five teams all won and the bottom five, obviously, all lost, just like last week.

Black’s 61-53 win over Royal Blue (4-5) wrapped up the top spot, while Red’s 61-52 win over Lime Green (3-6), also known as D2 Chestnut Hill, was good enough to take second.

Sky Blue and Maroon stayed tied for third with Sky Blue producing a 68-55 win over Kelly Green (1-8), a combination of D2 Millersville and D3 Moravian, to cash in its earlier 56-55 win over Maroon, which then landed fourth following it’s 100-42 thumping over Orange (2-7), also known as D3 Ursinus.

Purple (5-4), also known as the D2-East Stroudsburg alumni group, topped Golden Sun 72-46 to take fifth, one game ahead of Royal Blue (4-5), which despite its loss to Black, took sixth for the final bye position into next Tuesday’s quarterfinals.


The upper six already had their spots clinched and the lower four teams which will open the playoffs Thursday at 7 p.m. in a doubleheader on Court 1, already had their seeds and pairings decided with seventh-seeded Lime Green (3-6), the D2 Chestnut Hill group, set to play 10th-seeded Golden Sun in the first game, followed by eighth-seeded Orange (2-7) meeting ninth-seeded Kelly Green (1-8) at 8:15 p.m. on Court 1.

Gaining the Personal Standard

Again, as has been the case all summer except the previous two nights, the ability to score 20 or more points was relatively low key with just three players busting the barrier.

Maroon’s Irisa Ye, had 26 points fueled by six three-balls, in her bid to produce another 20 or more night, while Alana Cardona out of national semifinalist  Indiana Pa (IUP) and Souderton High, scored 23 points, her first night to make the milestone, and Sky Blue’s Dana Dockery also scored 23 out of Holy Family after hitting the mark earlier.

Setting The Seeds

As mentioned, records caused stand-alone spots from fifth through 10th in order Purple (5-4), Royal Blue (4-5), Lime Green (3-6), Orange (2-7), Kelly Green (1-7), which returned from Thursday’s forfeit loss to Royal Blue, and Golden Sun (0-9).

The forfeit, when Kelly Green couldn’t field enough players by the 15-minute grace deadline on 7 p.m. starts, was the only one across the June 18-July 23 two-nights a week schedule, which went dark for the July 4 holiday period.

The top, as mentioned, has Black (8-1) first off its 67-62 overtime win against Red (8-1) after both teams were tied 60-60 at the end of regulation.

Sky Blue (7-2) got the tie-break and third spot off fourth-seed Maroon (7-2) with its 56-55 win over the Devils on June 25th.

Six games pretty much set the top of the standings with Red’s 73-65 upset of Maroon on opening night, the same evening in which Black beat Sky Blue 74-48, to lead the timeline. 

Then came the aforementioned Sky Blue win over Maroon, followed by Maroon’s 73-64 win over Black on July 9 after the break. 

Two nights later Red hit Sky Blue with its second loss, 52-46, and then came the Black win in overtime over Red.

Looking Ahead

In the opening playoffs doubleheader to advance the remaining two teams to the quarterfinals, in their previous meetings, 10th-seed Golden Sun fell to seventh-seed Lime Green, 72-45, while eighth-seeded Orange in that scoring fest got one of its two wins, beating Kelly Green 107-95.

Kelly Green two nights later also gave up triple digits in a 103-53 loss to Team Red.

Two quarterfinal games are set for next Tuesday when No. 3 Sky Blue (7-2) meets No. 6 Royal Blue (4-5) at 7 p.m. on Court 2 before fourth-seeded Maroon (7-2) meets fifth-seeded Purple (5-4) at 8:15 on Court 2.

Sky Blue beat Royal Blue 74-49 while Maroon edged Purple 63-59.

Black will be on Court 1 at 7 p.m. to meet the lowest surviving seed from Thursday’s opener while Red is on the court at 8:15 p.m. to meet the highest surviving seed.

The semifinals on Court 1 for a doubleheader are a week from Thursday at 7 p.m. with the surviving two teams meeting at 7 p.m. on Court 1 on August 6 for the championship.

Now here’s Bob with the details of Tuesday’s games and your Guru notes this post is being put together on the overnight in 30th Street Station before hopping Amtrak this time, since was cheap- enough, to get back to Mohegan for an 11:30 a.m. game with the first-place Connecticut Sun hosting the first regular season meeting with the WNBA New York Liberty.

Wednesday is the last day before the All-Star break.

RECAPS:

Black 61,  Royal Blue   53
 
Team Black (also known as Division II Jefferson University) clinched the top seed for the upcoming league playoffs with a 61-53 win over Team Royal Blue (Kutztown/Salisbury).
 
Black had four players with eight or more points led by Sabria Lytes and Alexandra Warren who had 11 points apiece.  

Haley Meinel added 10 points while Brigit Arcidiacono chipped in eight.
 
Alyssa Bondi paced Royal with 14 points while Annie Whalen and Karen Lapkiewicz added 12 and ten respectively.
 
Black jumped out to a 7-2 lead only to see Royal Bluer surge back and tie the game twice, first at 10-10 following an 8-3 spurt and then again at 13-13.  Black closed out the quarter with nine straight points to lead 22-134 and increased their lead to double digits by halftime 36-25.
 
The two teams played an even third quarter with Black still on top by 11 heading into the final stanza.

  Lapkiewicz and Bondi brought Royal within seven, 47-40 with baskets to open the fourth quarter before Black went on a 12-3 run to take their biggest lead at 59-43 with 4:05 remaining.  

Royal made one last push with an 8-0 run, highlighted by a pair of Bondi three-balls to close within eight 59-51 with just under three minutes remaining. 

 This would be as close as they would come as the two teams exchanged points in the final 90 seconds to keep the gap at eight points.
 
Black finishes the regular season with an 8-1 record while Royal Blue will enter the playoffs as the #6 seed with a 4-5 record.
 
 Red  61,  Lime Green 52
 
Team Red (West Chester/Gettysburg) produced a huge third quarter run to pull away from a tenacious Lime Green (Chestnut Hill College) team earning a 61-52 win to finish the regular season with one loss and clinch the #2 seed for the upcoming league playoffs
 
Red placed three in double figures led by Leah Johnson’s 15 points. Carly Rice added 14 while Avery Bennett chipped in 12.
 
Alana Cardona led all scorers with 23 points and was the lone Lime Green player in double figures.  Brianna Cullen had eight points.
 
Red jumped out to a 12-8 lead after one quarter of play with neither team adding any points to their score in the final five minutes.  

Lime Green used a 7-2 run capped by two Cardona baskets to take their first lead of the game 17-14 before  back-to-back three-balls from Johnson and Becca Margolis put Red back on top 20-17. 

 The lead changed hands once more in the second quarter as Cardona converted back-to-back traditional three-point plays to give Lime Green a 25-22 lead.  

Lindsay Lane made the score 27-22 before consecutive baskets from Gabby Troisi cut the Line Green lead to one 27-26.  

Cullen’s basket gave Lime a 29-26 lead at halftime.
 
Lime Green opened up an eight point lead midway through the third quarter, 41-33 before Red came alive and went on a 16-0 tear erasing the deficit and taking a 47-41 lead into the fourth quarter.
 
A 6-2 run to open the fourth quarter pushed Red’s lead to ten, 53-43. 

 Lime Green pulled within seven late, 59-52 but that would be as close as they would get.
 
Lime Green finishes the regular season with a 3-6 record and will play in the opening round playoff games on Thursday as the #7 seed. 

 Red finishes with an 8-1 record, equaling Black’s mark but will be the #2 seed by virtue of their loss to Black.  
 
 Sky Blue 68,  Kelly Green 55
 
Sky Blue (Division II Holy Family University) cruised to a 68-55 win over Kelly Green to clinch the #3 seed for the upcoming playoffs.
 
Dana Dockery led four players in double figures for the Sky Blue squad with 23 points. 

 Megan Hughes added 15 points while Casey Schweitzer and Anjalai Hayes chipped in 12 and 10 points respectively.
 
Kate Seeman led Kelly Green with 15 points.  Samantha Brusha added 14 while Raven James chipped in 13.
 
Seven lead changes highlighted the first quarter as Sky Blue emerged on top after ten minutes of action 19-15. 

 Sky used a 13-2 run in the second quarter to push the lead to double digits, 32-17 with Dockery netting six points during the surge.

The Sky Blue squad took a 39-22 lead at halftime.
 
Schweitzer’s basket early in the third quarter pushed Sky’s lead to its biggest margin, 44-24, and the team kept the double digit advantage through the rest of the second half.  

Kelly Green closed the gap though in the fourth quarter using a 16-9 spurt to cut lead to ten 68-55 before one last three-ball from Sky made the final margin 68-55.
 
Sky Blue finishes the regular season with a 7-2 mark and will be the third seed in the playoffs based on the head-to-head win over Maroon who also finished with a 7-2 mark.  

Kelly Green will enter the playoffs as the #9 seed with a 1-8 final regular season record.
 
Maroon  100, Orange  42
 
Team Maroon (Division II University of the Sciences) produced the largest margin of victory in a league game this season with a 100-42 blowout over Team Orange (Division III Ursinus College).
 
Maroon becomes the second team to reach the century mark in a league game this season, joining Orange who scored 107 in a win over Kelly Green two weeks ago.  

The Maroon squad clinches the #4 seed in the upcoming playoffs with the win.
 
The Maroon squad again rained down three-point baskets with 17 buckets beyond the arc, marking the fifth time in nine league games that they have made ten or more in a single contest.  
 
Irisa Ye had six of those three-point goals en route to a 26 point effort, the highest point total on the night.

  Four other players reached double figures for Maroon with Jordan Vitelli knocking down four three-balls and finishing with 16 points; Taylor Hamm adding 13 points (7 FT’s); Kendal Keyes 11 ( three three’s) and Kerry Patterson 11 points (one three-ball).
 
Lydia Konstanzer and Alana Davidson had 11 points apiece for Orange.
 
Orange kept the game close in the first quarter forcing three ties and three lead changes.  

The last lead change came in the final seconds as Konstanzer hit two free throws to give Orange a 19-18 lead at the end of the quarter.
 
Ye’s basket to start the second quarter gave Maroon the lead back and opened the floodgates as they outscored Orange 36-5 over the ten minute quarter to take a 54-24 lead at the half.
 
Maroon extended the lead to 83-36 after three quarters and reached the century mark on Hamm’s put back in the final 20 seconds of play, making the final score 100-42
 
Maroon, like Sky Blue, finished the regular season with a 7-2 mark. 

They will be the fourth seed as Sky won the head-to-head match-up earlier in the season.

 Orange finishes with a 2-7 mark and will be the #8 seed in the upcoming playoffs.
 
 Purple 72 , Golden Sun  46
 
Team Purple (East Stroudsburg alumni) broke open a tie game in the fourth quarter as they held Golden Sun (Arcadia University) to just two points in the final stanza to cruise to a 72-46 win and clinch the #5 seed for the upcoming playoffs.
 
Purple placed four players in double figures with Madison Tamburini leading the way with 15 points. 

 Dana Bandurick and Brady Wassell had 13 apiece while Sydney Blum added 12.
 
Julia Makowski led Golden Sun with 13 points while Sami Falencki chipped in nine.
 
Purple jumped out to a 15-6 lead in the opening quarter but Golden Sun would not back away, continuing to play hard and closing the gap with an 11-7 run to end the first quarter down 22-17. 

The Golden Sun squad continue to chip away at the lead, outscoring Purple 10-6 in the second quarter to trail by one 28-27 at the half.
 
Asya Alba gave Golden Sun their first lead since 3-0 in the first quarter with a free throw early on, breaking a 30-30 tie. 

 Bandurick followed with a basket to give Purple the lead again at 32-31. 

 Purple increased their margin to five on several occasions in the third quarter before Golden sun went on an 8-2 run , capped by a Makowski bucket to retake the lead at 44-43.

  A Purple free throw tied the game going into the fourth quarter.
 
The floodgates opened in the fourth quarter as Purple scored the first 19 points of the quarter to lead 63-44 before Makowski sank two free throws to break the run.

 Purple added nine more points after the free throws, outscoring Golden Sun 28-2 in the quarter to earn a 72-46 win.
 
Purple will be the #5 seed with a 5-4 regular season mark.  Golden Sun enters the playoffs as the #10 seed with a 0-9 mark.
