STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Curtis, behind Sanaya Frederick’s 21 points and eight rebounds, won the battle of 3-0 teams in the PSAL 4A Staten Island division with a 69-42 victory over visiting Susan Wagner on Wednesday.

Alina Stardobunko added 16 points, three steals and four rebounds for the winners.

“Each practice and each game the girls are gaining more confidence in themselves and each other,” said Curtis head coach Talia Sutton. “Tonight’s effort was a result of team defense and early success in our full-court press.

“Janiya Thomas played really strong defense against Casey McKinney and I believe that gave the team the energy we needed to compete. Our defense influenced our offense, which is exactly what we strive to do every game.”

Thomas contributed 10 points and 10 rebounds.

“She played excellent post defense and did a lot more of the little things on defense that do not necessarily come up on the stat sheet,” said Sutton.

The Warriors play at Thurgood Marshall on Saturday.

Tottenville 61, Holy Cross 47

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Grace Anderson led all scorers with 31 points to go along with 10 rebounds, five steals and six assists as the Pirates won their home opener on Wednesday in a non-league game.

“She came to play tonight,” said Tottenville head coach Jessica Althoff of Anderson. “Grace works so hard and wants it and when she’s on she’s hard to beat.”

Emily Salafia (five steals) and Brianna Ardolic combined for 16 points in game the Pirates led 34-30 at the half.

The Tots outscored Holy Cross, 12-7, in the third quarter to begin to pull away.

“This was a great win for us. Holy Cross is a great team, they are quick, strong and move the ball well,” said Althoff. “Defensively, we played hard, and our energy was there tonight. We’ve been working a lot on energy and intensity while they play so I was happy to see they brought it with them tonight. We are still a work in progress, and I still would like to see more consistency from them overall, but our season has only just begun.”
