BOYS BASKETBALL
Last night the 7th grade boy’s basketball team lost a heartbreaker to Lyman Moore Middle School 46-50. The Rams never trailed until the last two minutes when Moore beat them down the court for a lay-up. Trailing by two the Rams ran but couldn’t catch up as Moore hit some very clutch free throws. Chandler Reagan and Cody Rioux led the team with 14 points each. Zach Mills, Harrison Reeder, and Matt Esposito tried to keep the much bigger Moore big men off the boards, but in the end their height was simply too much. All in all it was a high quality effort that showed these 7th grade Rams can hang with any team in the league. Be sure to attend the boy’s home debut on Wednesday when the Rams welcome Memorial at 3:30 and 4:30!!

GIRLS BASKETBALL
The 7th grade Lady Ram’s basketball team defeated Moore 28-15. The top 2 scorers of the game were Aliza Jordan and MacKenzie Bowers both with 6 points. Brooke Leeman and Jaymie Seneca knocked in four points each. Summer McDonald, Sarah Plourde, Kate Hopkins, and Abby Hamilton all got 2 points this game. The Lady Rams are defeating every team they face so far this year. Undefeated 4-0!! Way to go girls! Next game is Wednesday at Memorial. Good luck! Also practice today is at 4:15.
