MANCHESTER – It may have been the first game of the season, but Lani Buskey’s prognostication skills were in midseason form.
Her Pinkerton Academy girls basketball team led Manchester Central by 12 points at halftime after holding the Little Green scoreless for more than four minutes to open the second quarter.
But despite the lead, Buskey told the Astros to be ready for Central to make a run to start the third quarter and have a way to answer it.
It took Pinkerton a while, as the Little Green opened the half with a 10-1 run to make it a three-point game, but the Astros went on a run of their own in the fourth quarter and picked up a 56-40 win over Central in the Division I opener for both teams Tuesday night.
