The Red Riots prevailed as the ball fell off the rim at the end of the game to their advantage with the final score of 27-29. Ella Williams, CC Higgins and Sydney Kinkade all had 6 points each. The girls next game is at home, against Center Drive School of Orrington. Keep up the good work Lady Red Devils.

     

    Girls ‘B’ Basketball: The Girls ‘B’ team earned themselves a very important and impressive first victory against Orono. The girls hard-nosed defense helped them shut down a much bigger Orono team. Their offense was spread out throughout the whole team and heading in the right direction. Great job girls.

     

    Boys ‘A’ Basketball: A little home cooking was on the menu last night in the Ralph G. Russell Gymnasium as the Holbrook boys ‘A’ basketball team hosted the Orono Red Riots. The home team got off to a red hot start, taking an early lead and never looked back.

     

    Ty Williams was his usual self, scoring a game-high 12 points; Micha Kennedy filled it up with 9 points; Kam Weymouth showed why he was named one of the captains, organizing the offense and powering his way to 8 points; Alton Potter was a defensive force while also adding 4 points; Kael Andrews-Bush hit a deep 3; Emmett Lemieux and Korbin Cullen contributed 2 points each. Cole Roberts, Caden Deslandes and Chase Cyr played great team defense as the Holbrook Red Devils got a well-deserved victory, improving to 2-1 on the season! 

     

    Boys ‘B’ Basketball: The Holbrook B boys basketball team played another close game on Wednesday night against the Orono Red Riots.  We came up a little short on the scoreboard with Orono coming away with a 29 to 27 win.  Our boys came back from a 6-point deficit at half-time to tie the game in the fourth period, but Orono was resilient and patient to take the lead at the end of the contest.  Holbrook was led in scoring by AJ Josiah with 10 points and Matthew Perkins with 6 points.  Henry Osbourne and Jaxson Grass showed great hustle and tenacity throughout the game causing disruption for Orono during our full court pressure.  The Holbrook boys work hard and continue to show improvement.   GREAT WORK BOYS!!!

     

    Chess: Last night, the Holbrook Chess Team took down Orono in a nail biter 33-27. Lukas Millett and Sebastian Pagnozzi lead the way in scoring, while Mackenzie Reardon and Alexander McDonald put in strong performances to secure the victory. It was a total team effort. Next practice is Monday. 

     

    Today’s Thought: When it snows you have two choices.  Shovel or snow angels.
