Salesian College Prep dominated its home court against Albany in the TCAL opener, showcasing a well-rounded performance that left opponents struggling to keep up. Without the presence of Stanford commit Elias Obenyah, Salesian's depth and versatility proved too much for Albany.
The Dragons' offense was led by Carlton Perilliat Jr., who used his quick feet and agility to evade defenders and create scoring opportunities. His passing ability allowed him to set up teammates for easy baskets, while also finding ways to get around the pressure from Albany's defense.
Meanwhile, Albany's offense struggled to find its rhythm against Salesian's stifling defense. The Dragons' ability to double-team opponents, particularly in the paint, made it difficult for Albany to score consistently. Deron Lyons and Kaelin Morris were tasked with guarding Perilliat Jr., but they found themselves in a bind as he continued to make plays.
Salesian's victory is a testament to its team-first approach, which has contributed to their success this season. By playing together seamlessly, the Dragons have been able to overpower opponents on both ends of the court.
With this win, Salesian takes a significant step forward in its quest for conference supremacy. The pressure will now be on Albany to respond and find ways to neutralize Salesian's potent offense.
