Early in the second quarter Travis Padilla went to the bench after picking up his third foul. Anthony DeMauro’s 10-point second quarter led a Boothbay 30-14 run and the Seahawks pulled away leading at half-time 43-22.
Late in the third quarter Wiscasset picked up some momentum and began pressuring the Seahawks and forced some turnovers. The Wolverines closed the deficit to 14 with 4:40 remaining in the game, but that was as close as Wiscasset would get.
