Despite relinquishing a lead late in the third quarter, the Wiscasset High School girls varsity basketball team was able to rally to defeat Lisbon, 48-38, Friday, Dec. 19.

The Wolverines (2-4 after the Lisbon game, currently 3-4 on the season) held the lead for most of the game, but a Greyhound (0-4) buzzer beater briefly gave the away team the lead.

Although Wiscasset had a large height advantage, Lisbon would not go quietly; behind guards Mia Durgin and Mikayla Yanez, the Greyhounds were able to stretch the floor and space out Wiscasset's post players.

Wiscasset jumped out to an early lead and appeared to be well on its way towards the team's second victory.

After the first quarter, it was 14-3 in favor of the Wolverines and by the time the halftime horn blew, Wiscasset had stacked a 27-16 lead over the Greyhounds.

But, Lisbon wasn't ready to roll over.

Behind Durgin and Jasmin Le, Lisbon outscored Wiscasset 16-4 in the third quarter, and took its first lead of the game when Le sunk a buzzer-beater to make the score 32-31 in favor of the Greyhounds.

But Wiscasset wasn't done yet.

Gordon and Faulkingham each scored five points in the final frame and the Wolverines were able to play keep-away to seal the 48-38 victory.

Faulkingham scored 17 points, including a pair of three-pointers, and Gordon scored 15 points, including a perfect three-out-of-three from the free-throw line. Tylan Onorato was also able to score in double digits, as the senior netted 10 points.
