- Hornets Sting Attleboro
(10)Mansfield 46
(1)Attleboro 45
Mansfield has a quote “Teammates First” on their warm-up
shirts and coach Paul Mordarski told me the boys lived up to that mantra when
they knocked off the number-one ranked Attleboro squad this past Sunday.
“Given
Attleboro’s skill level, the boys consistently needed to pick each other up in
a positive manner,” said Mordarski. “Without that positive attitude, we lose for
sure.”
He also
attributed the unselfish mindset to some steady, patient and effective half
court offense.
However,
it was the intense, disciplined defense that carried the day holding Attleboro,
a team that regularly scores above 60, to 45 points. Mansfield mixed defenses
throughout the game to keep Attleboro of balance.
Nine
players on Mansfield found their way into the scoring column led by John
Carney’s 11 points.
- Newton Back in Win Column
(14)Newton 62
(5)Belmont 58
As sixth graders, Newton
rolled to an undefeated record. This year, they have some blemishes on the
record, but recorded a quality win over the weekend against a strong Belmont
squad.
This squad will be scary
come playoff time. The Newton basketball program is as strong as it gets and
this team is one of the strongest in their program.
- North Quincy Downs Westwood
North Quincy 59
(22)Westwood 51
North Quincy earned a quality win over Westwood on Sunday,
59-51.
"It was a
tough, hard fought game, each team had its own share of runs and competed until
the final whistle,” said North Quincy coach Kyle Costa. “I think our team
defense and guys being locked into their assignments helped us to get the
victory."
Franck Yhomby led the way with 28 points and 12 rebounds.
Declan O’Sullivan chipped in 12 points and 13 rebounds in the victory.
