PLATTSBURGH - Adam Jaquish alone is a one-man wrecking crew. Coupled with fellow tall-man Taylor Slattery, the duo gave Argyle nightmares inside the arch all night long.
And that's why the Moriah Vikings are moving to the Regional Finals at SUNY Canton on Saturday after disrupting the reigning Class D State Champions 50-40.
For most of the game, the two inside gave Argyle (18-4) trouble as the Scots attempted to get the ball in deep. Often this would result in disaster as either the ball would be tipped and turned over, the shot would be blocked, or the shot would be off the mark and rebounded by the Vikings. This accounted for their main inside guys, Del Pryce and James Bristol, combining for only 8 points.
This resulted in Argyle going to the half down 28-13, with sophomore Adam Jaquish accounting for 19 of those 28 points. His average leading into the contest was 17 points per game.
In the 2nd half, the Scots started to bounce back, taking some fouls to aid their comeback. They would come to within 7 points before the Vikings iced it thanks to Ryan Jaquish's free throws.
Kobe Lufkin added one final trey this season to put his record-breaking total to 92 for the season. He would finish with 11 points. Brock Liddle led the Scots with 14 points, half of which came from the charity stripe.
Adam Jaquish would finish with 25 points, and Noah Gilbo scored 9.
The Moriah Vikings (20-2) now will travel to SUNY Canton on Saturday where they will face Madrid-Waddington with a berth to the Glens Falls Civic Center on the line.
