With a blizzard set to slam Long Island with 18″ of snow, Tim Pandolfi blew into Sag Harbor and dropped 32 points to lead the Bears to a 59-47 victory. Pandolfi’s effort was all the more impressive considering he sat out the entire opening quarter as he continues to ease his way back into the flow after knee surgery. The Whalers’ gritty play gave them a 12-11 lead after the first, but the Blue and White wrested control away with a 16-6 second frame. In the pivotal third quarter, the Brook outscored their hosts 22-15 to take a 16-point edge into the fourth. Senior captain Farqu Taylor added 13 points as the boys improved to 2-0 in League VIII.
