WFHS Boys Basketball Team | WFSD

The William Floyd boys’ varsity basketball team, led by head coach Will Slinkosky, recently earned their third consecutive League I title with a 72-64 victory over Brentwood.

This was a historic feat for the Colonials as there has been no other stretch in program history that this feat has been accomplished.

Dahmarion Moses had a dominant performance in the win, recording a double-double with a team-high 18 points and 10 rebounds. Jawuan Smith added a double-double of his own with 11 points and 10 rebounds. 

Sharod Sutton’s 17 points and Jermaine King’s 15 points were also instrumental in the league-clinching victory.

The Colonials have clinched their spot in the Class AAA playoffs and will be working hard to achieve their goal of a deep playoff run and a chance to head back to the Suffolk County Championship game.  

The Colonials followed up this victory with a 66-51 road victory over Riverhead on January 30 and will close out their regular season on Tuesday, February 4, with a home game against Central Islip, which is also Senior Night.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
