Passaic County Boys Basketball Tournament First Round: Wayne Hills 63, Manchester 40

Four players amassed double digits as Wayne Hills (No. 11, 7-12) upset Manchester (No. 6, 11-5). Sam Pressler and Mike Driesse led the way with 18 and 17 points respectively. Pete Daibes was next with 12. Matt Heskins added 10 points.

After starting the season 3-12, Hills has now won four straight - including wins over Passaic and Wayne Valley.

"Everybody thought we were the worst team in this tournament," Driesse said.

"All season long it seemed like we were inventing ways to lose," he coach Paul Palek said. "We're starting to play well now. This has been a long time coming."
