BY BOB MARTIN [email protected] GILFORD – It was a tough time for Win- nisquam at the Lakes Region Holiday Tour- nament, with the boys' team narrowly losing in the first round and the girls' team losing convincingly, both to Laconia squads. The boys' team lost 45-44 in the opening round, in what was a back-and-forth game all the way through. It was a 19-19 game at the half and the Bears led 33-32 at the end of three quarters. Coach Kevin Dame said the Bears always found ways to keep it close but never pull the game in their direction, but that it was a hard fought game against a tough team. “We're still relative- ly young and we are learning, but I hope we can get going and learn a little bit quick- BOB MARTIN Freshman Caleb Bushway goes up for a layup during the Lakes Region Holiday Tournament. er,” said Dame. throw line throughout Kyle Mann had the game, which ended 16 points to lead the up being the difference team.
