Road Worries, Woburn Tames Lady Raiders, 57-44
Melrose went in to once-beaten Woburn with high hopes, but left on the short end of the score, falling 57-44.
The Lady Raiders got off to a good start, leading after the first period, 14-13, with sophomores Brooke Bell and Kayla Wyland combining for ten points. Melrose kept up the solid defense, tied at 20 against a Woburn team known for their defense.
Woburn garnered a measure of control in the third, as they outscored Melrose 37-34.
But in the pivotal fourth, Woburn went wild at the line, and doubled up Melrose 20-10, to ice the victory and remain in the hunt trailing Reading. Brooke Bell had ten points followed by Kayla Wyland with nine to lead Melrose.
Lady Raider Notes: Melrose travels to Watertown Sunday for a makeup against the young and talented Raiders. Melrose will try to regain their mojo as they battle to get to the post-season.
Coach Rob Ferrante made a special appearance on MMTV's sports program "Let's Talk Sports" sharing his thoughts and ideas about the Melrose basketball program. The segment should be appearing soon. Also on that episode, the Melrose High School Athletic Hall of Fame reveals the newest inductees to the Hall.
