Girls Basketball: Tomasetti, GV earn another Central title

LOWER MERION — Sam Tomasetti is the type of player who grinds out every possession, offensively and defensively, and does many of the little things that tend to go unnoticed during the course of a basketball game. The Garnet Valley junior forward doesn’t grab headlines in the high school sports pages for scoring 20 points a game. She gets most of her well-deserved athletic attention during the softball season when she’s mashing home runs as an All-Delco shortstop.

In the final two minutes, Tomasetti pulled down an offensive rebound that led to Maddie Ireland’s game-clinching 3-point field goal. And on the ensuing Strath Haven possession, Tomasetti picked off an in-bounds pass to put the bowtie on Garnet Valley’s second consecutive Central League title win, a 40-31 decision.
