Bouncing back from defeat

Sometimes a loss can be a good thing, so maybe girls basketball losses last night by Kingston and Ellenville could be the best thing that could have happened for them.

Kingston, currently the topped-ranked team in the state in AA, lost to perennial rival Minisink Valley. By all accounts, the Tigers were outplayed by the Warriors, yet a 57-50 loss that was tied at halftime certainly shows the Tigers were right there.

The Devils, ranked third in the state in Class C, held a late lead before Class B Spackenkill rallied for the overtime victory. Ellenville can certainly use the loss to know what not to do the next time it finds itself in that situation.

Not many teams can finish a season undefeated, so one loss shouldn't knock the train off the tracks. How each team responds will go a long way in determining how far each one will go when the postseason rolls around.
