Already down one of its projected starters to a season-ending injury, the St. Joseph boys basketball team lost another recently when it was determined junior guard Daniel Fábregas would miss the rest of the year with a broken finger.

Fábregas, a Valley News Dispatch All-Star as a sophomore, suffered the injury early in the season and played through it with a splint, but the condition worsened and he recently was shut down for the season.

Junior Matt Arvay was lost to a torn ACL in the preseason for St. Joseph (3-7, 0-2 Section 3-A), which enters Friday's game at Trinity Christian on a six-game losing streak.

“This is just another devastating hit to our team,” coach Kelly Robinson said. “It just makes things difficult. The only upside to both of them is the fact that they're both juniors and they both come back for their senior year.”
