“Ossining vs Irvington has been moved to Monday 2/11 at 4:30 PM #seniorday,” Ossining coach Dan Ricci tweeted Thursday. Friday’s game was to be the Pride’s final home game of the regular season and Ossining’s Senior Day.

Ossining (12-4) defeated Irvington (14-1), 90-84, in the Slam Dunk Tournament at the Westchester County Center in late December. Saniya Chong led the Pride with 51 points in that game to break her own scoring record in the tournament. Lexi Martins had 30 points, 17 rebounds, five assists and three steals for Irvington.

The New York State Sportswriters Association ranked the Pride as the No. 1 team in New York State in Class AA and the Bulldogs as the No. 1 team in Class B in its latest rankings.
