Wolverines on the prowl
The Wiscasset Wolverines will, for the first time in several years, have both boys and girls basketball teams in the state brackets.
And now the teams know who they will be up against.
The girls team (6-12) will have the unenviable task of taking on a tough Carrabec Cobras squad.
The Cobras secured the third seed in Western Class C by going 14-4 on the season.
When the two teams met up December 6 in Wiscasset, the Cobras were able to come away with a 55-42 win.
The girls team will play at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 11, in Carrabec, at 160 North Main Street in North Anson.
As for the boys team (10-8), the road to Augusta will be a tough one, too.
The eighth-seeded Wolverines first-round opponent is perennial powerhouse Old Orchard Beach, but unlike the girls team, the boys will play host to their opponent. The ninth-seeded Seagulls (12-5) will play the Wolverines at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 12 in Wiscasset.
The two teams didn't meet in 2013-14, but mere percentage points separated the two teams.
Should Wiscasset chop down Old Orchard, the Wolverines will need to find their way against Dirigo, who claimed the first seed in Western Class C.
Dirigo will have a first-round bye and guaranteed home game in the second round of the playoffs.
