Warde Cagers Blasted Darien, 78-40, 42 Years Ago Today

Ron DelBianco and Dave Favale combined for 39 points as the Andrew Warde High School boys' basketball team registered an easy 78-40 victory over visiting Darien, Friday evening, December 14, 1973.

Coach Ed Bengermino's Crimson Eagles were never threatened by the Blue Wave cagers as Warde took a 20-6 first quarter lead behind DelBianco's 10 points. Phil Ness, Warde's brilliant center, and Favale, each had five points.

Warde, which improved to 2-1 overall, led at the intermission by a 37-21 score. Darien, which fell to 0-2, won the jayvee tilt, 45-37.
