With eight games complete in Town of Brookhaven summer league basketball season, the Centereach Cougars girls basketball squad (6-2), squared off against the Mustangs of Mount Sinai (7-0-1) Monday night, July 29. The competition was as hot as the temperature was inside the Mount Sinai gymnasium where it was a two-point game with eight minutes remaining. 

The Mustangs trailed 33-31 before Centereach turned up the heat with Delaney Walters hitting 3-point shots at will to put the game away 49-37, resulting in the Mustangs first loss of the season.
