Boothbay crushes Wiscasset, 93-34
The undefeated Boothbay Region Seahawks boys (7-0) made quick work of the now 1-6 Wiscasset Wolverines Thursday night, winning easily, 93-34, at Boothbay Region High School.
The Wolverines stayed relatively close in the first quarter, trailing by only 15, 26-11, sparked by Billy Pinkham’s two 3-pointers and one by Josh Gabriele, but the Seahawks’ defense tightened up in the second quarter, holding the visitors to only three points. Boothbay led at halftime, 51-14. Senior co-captain Steve Reny scored 14 of his game-high 18 points in the first half.
Coach I.J. Pinkham let his starters play about half of the third quarter before clearing the bench for the rest of the game.
Sophomore Ben Pearce had a good night for the Seahawks, scoring 15 points, 13 in the first half, including a 3-pointer to open the game’s scoring. Joining Reny and Pearce in double figures were sophomore Kaleb Ames with 15 and junior Hunter Crocker with 10. Juniors Quinn Ranta, Steve Bennett and Nick Morley each scored seven points, senior Brett Hollowell had six, junior Mike Hollowell had five and junior Sullivan Rice scored three.
Junior Billy Pinkham led the Wolverines with 13 points, followed by senior Haiden Dunning with eight, senior Josh Gabriele with seven, senior Matt Chapman with four and senior Chris Loyola with two.
Boothbay is scheduled to travel to North Anson Saturday night, Jan. 5 to face Carrabec (0-7). Wiscasset will host Lisbon (4-3) Saturday night.
