AMENIA — Webutuck’s Tuesday, Jan. 28, basketball game against Pine Plains highlighted the importance of strong fundamentals.

The game came down to the final minutes, when the Pine Plains Bombers took an impressive scoring run to win 54-43.

Webutuck exhibited solid fundamentals, keeping the game competitive by winning rebounds and tighter plays. In their previous games the squad struggled under the net, but in the match-up against Pine Plains the Wildcats showed considerable improvement. However, the Bombers still managed to attempt more shots per possession than the Wildcats, indicating Webutuck still has some work to do on defense.

The Bombers were led by TK Regis, no. 2 of Pine Plains, with 20 points and TK Rathjen (?), no. 1 of Pine Plains, with 19.

The Wildcats’ top scorers were Evan Brammer, no. 13 of Webutuck, with 11 points and Hayden Whiteley with 9.

After moving to West Cornwall in 2012, we were given a thoughtful housewarming gift: the 1997 edition of “Dirr’s Hardy Trees and Shrubs.” We were told the encyclopedic volume was the definitive gardener’s reference guide — a fact I already knew, having purchased one several months earlier at the recommendation of a gardener I admire.

At the time, we were in the thick of winter invasive removal, and I enjoyed reading and dreaming about the trees and shrubs I could plant to fill in the bare spots where the bittersweet, barberry, multiflora rose and other invasive plants had been.Years later, I purchased the 2011 edition, updated and inclusive of plants for warm climates.
