Boys’ Basketball

Laconia 53, Bow 46

Key players: Laconia – Keaton Beck (19 points, rebounding); Bow – Jake Reardon (14 points), Brendan O’Keeffe (13 points)

Coach’s quote:  “You’re not going to win many games when you get outrebounded and you turn the ball over. Really haven’t played a complete quarter or game. I thought we played in spurts. Laconia played well and worked the ball inside where their strengths are. We will be fine when we find our comfort zone, do the little things and play together.” – Bow’s Scott Drapeau

Records: Laconia 1-1; Bow 1-1

Mascoma 65, Belmont 47

Key players: Belmont – Keegan Martinez (19 points), Wyatt Carroll (12 points)

Coach’s quote:  “Most will look at our early 1-2 record and really misjudge how this team is coming together. Mascoma is a great team, and we now know what we need to do to compete at the highest level against the best. I’m very proud of each and everyone of my guys for how hard they battled. We are only just beginning.” – Belmont’s Tony Martinez

Records: Mascoma 3-0; Belmont 1-2
