The Boothbay girls varsity basketball team jumped out to a 19-6 first quarter lead and were never challenged in their 62-29 win over the visiting Winthrop Ramblers Thursday night, Jan. 26 at Porter Memorial Gymnasium, BRHS.
While Winthrop tried to double-team the league’s leading scorer at the outset, Boothbay’s Page Brown, fellow junior Sydney Meader scored 11 of her 19 points in the first quarter. Once that strategy didn’t work, Brown went on to score 21 points to lead the Seahawks, who improved to 13-1. Senior Nicole Clarke added eight points to Boothbay’s total.
The Ramblers had trouble getting good looks against Boothbay’s zone throughout the game and committed several turnovers which led to easy Boothbay baskets in the first half.
Leading scorer for Winthrop (8-6) was Layne Audet with seven points.
Boothbay’s next game is at Madison on Saturday, Jan. 28 at 7 p.m.
