Cape May County high school basketball teams are really starting to make their mark. Almost every time a county team faces an opponent from outside, they come up with a victory. Last week, Wildwood came up with two victories, including one over rival Lower Cape May. Wildwood's defense did a job on high-scoring guard Pat Holden in a 66-57 win over Lower on the Warriors' home court. Gerald Wright came up with 13 fourth-quarter points as Wildwood pulled away. Wright ended up with 25 on the game and was aided by Paul Franco's 16 points and 16 rebounds. The loss marked the first league setback for the Capers as Holden could manage just 11 points.
