The Mt. Abram offense came alive in the fourth quarter and the Roadrunners went on to steal a win at Boothbay Region High School, 66-55, Monday night, Jan. 9.

The visitors outscored Boothbay 30-11 in the final frame to improve to 5-2 on the season. Boothbay fell to 4-4.

The Seahawks took the lead in the second quarter, led at the half, 28-22, and led by as many as 10 in the third quarter before Mt. Abram started chipping away, despite the sharp shooting of Boothbay junior Finn Harkins, who nailed five three-pointers in the second half. Harkins went on to lead Boothbay with 27 points.

Mt. Abram playmaker Payton Mitchell had to sit most of the third quarter with four fouls, but he seemed to spur the Roadrunners’ offense when he returned to the court in the fourth quarter, handing out assists, making steals and grabbing rebounds.

A beneficiary of Mitchell’s play was Roadrunner Cam Gray, who scored 14 of his team-leading 26 points in the final quarter, including hitting seven of nine free throws.

Boothbay’s Luke Morley was the Seahawks’ only other double-figure scorer with 11 points.

For Mt. Abram, Dylan Thome pitched in with 12 points, including three second-half three-pointers.

Boothbay’s next game is scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 11 at Wiscasset (0-7).
