Winchester Tomorrow: Trap Game
The Boston Globe with its take on the Melrose victory yesterday.
The Lady Raiders face Winchester tomorrow at Winchester. The Sachems were within four points in the last three minutes when they played at Melrose earlier this season. They have one of the best scorers in the league in Sam Mangano, a smooth forward with length and a shooter's touch, and Shelby Santini a valuable complementary player. In the last game, Melrose won the game in the backcourt, forcing many turnovers.
Melrose cannot afford a letdown against a talented team that has been trying for years to break through and that defeated Stoneham recently. Winchester is riding a four game winning streak and comes in at 12-5.
