Wiscasset holds on, beats Hall-Dale
Austin Haskell’s 22 points led the Wolverines past the Hall-Dale Bulldogs (6-4), 65-61, on Tuesday, Jan. 15. With the win, Wiscasset improves to 6-4 for the season.
“We got off to a good start shooting the ball and getting back defensively,” Coach Dana Lawrence said. The Wolverines had a 16-point lead at one point in the fist half, but the Bulldogs narrowed the lead to six at halftime.
In the fourth quarter, Hall-Dale began to pressure Wiscasset with a half-court trapping defense, which allowed the Bulldogs to get back into the game, down by only two points with two and a half minutes left to play.
“We answered,” Lawrence said. “Down the stretch they needed the ball and we took care of it and made free throws to seal it.”
Other double-digit scorers for Wiscasset were Chandler Longfellow with 16 and Travis Padilla with 15.
The Wolverines had 10 steals in the game, four by Haskell, three by Jennings Souza and three by Dale Peaslee. Padilla led Wolverine rebounding with eight.
Mike Woods led Hall-Dale with 27 points and Wesley Lapointe added 16.
