Cartwright’s priorities included in FY2020 funding bills

<p>KINGSTON &#8211; No Wyoming Valley Conference boys basketball team will make it to the holidays with a perfect non-league record this season.</p><p>Wyoming Seminary&#8217;s Jeremy Callahan&#8217;s outside shooting and Ethan Meuser&#8217;s play around the paint made sure of that.</p><p>Callahan scored 22 points, including the 1,000th of his career, Friday night and the host Blue Knights opened up a 21-point lead before coasting home with a 52-41 victory over Crestwood on Friday night.</p><p>Meuser chipped in with 13 points, 12 rebounds and five blocked shots.</p><p>Callahan entered the game against an unbeaten opponent knowing he needed 11 points for the milestone. He got there in a hurry.</p><p>After making a pair of 3-pointers while Wyoming Seminary was otherwise struggling through the first quarter, Callahan hit two more 42 seconds apart midway through the second quarter in the middle of a game-changing run to surpass the milestone.</p><p>&#8220;Coming into the week, getting close (to 1,000), you kind of start to take a lot of time to think about,&#8221; said Callahan, a senior guard. &#8220;It&#8217;s just the culmination of a lot of work over a lot of time. It&#8217;s not just your four years in high school.</p><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s everything you do before that to prepare as well.&#8221;</p><p>The back-to-back 3-pointers put Wyoming Seminary ahead, 19-18, with 3:48 left in the half and the Blue Knights remained there the rest of the way.</p><p>Callahan had 16 points by halftime. He had 10 in Wyoming Seminary&#8217;s 15-2 run to end the half with a 28-20 lead.</p><p>After scoring the last five points of the first half, the Blue Knights added the first nine of the second half. Meuser had eight of the 14 straight points for a 37-20 lead with 4:36 left in the third quarter.</p><p>Crestwood tried to work its way back, but Callahan had a three-point play and a 3-pointer 28 seconds apart to make it 47-27 with 1:32 left in the third quarter.</p><p>Callahan made five 3-pointers with his only miss outside the arc coming on a long, hurried attempt at the halftime buzzer.</p><p>&#8220;Jeremy&#8217;s a two-way player,&#8221; Wyoming Seminary coach Pete Moses said. &#8220;He takes as much pride in his defense as he does on the offensive end.&#8221;</p><p>Indeed, both Callahan and Moses spent a good share of postgame interviews talking about the importance of containing Crestwood&#8217;s 3-point shooters and limiting a team that had averaged 73 points in a 3-0 start to 41.</p><p>Crestwood had just one 3-pointer in each quarter until Ryan Petrosky hit with 10 seconds left to complete a 15-point night.</p><p>Jacob Zaleski had 12 points, including two 3-pointers in the first 10 minutes to get the Comets out to a 16-10 lead, but did not score again.</p><p>Todd Phillips was part of the defensive effort with three steals while also scoring six points for Wyoming Seminary, which improved to 3-2.</p><p><strong>Wyoming Seminary 52, Crestwood 41</strong></p><p class="x_p1"><strong>CRESTWOOD (41) &#8212;</strong> Brandon Nieminski 0 0-0 0, Mike Zaleski 1 0-0 3, Ryan Petrosky 6 1-1 15, Marcus Vieney 1 2-4 4, Paul Feisel 0 0-0 0, Brad Papura 2 3-3 7, Jacob Zaleski 5 0-1 12. <strong>Totals 15 6-9 41.</strong></p><p><strong>WYOMING SEMINARY (52) &#8212;</strong> Alex Meuser 2 0-0 5, Todd Phillips 3 0-1 6, Jeremy Callahan 7 3-7 22, Ethan Meuser 5 2-4 13, Andrew Maddock 0 0-0 0, Gavin Flanley 0 0-0 0, Aiden Murphy 2 2-2 6. <strong>Totals 19 7-14 52.</strong></p><p><strong>Crestwood`13`7`10`11`&#8212;`41</strong></p><p><strong>Wyoming Seminary`10`18`19`5`&#8212;`52</strong></p><p class="x_p1"><strong>Three-point baskets &#8212;</strong> CREST 5 (Petrosky 2, JZaleski 2, MZaleski), SEM 7 (Callahan 5, AMeuser, EMeuser).</p><style>
