Boys’ basketball: Verrier, Oxford Hills pepper Edward Little
Collapsing two, three — heck, five — defenders on Andrew Fleming, leaving Cole Verrier wide open and daring him to stabilize those emotions long enough to knock down 3-pointers probably isn’t the craziest strategy in the world. Didn’t work, though. Verrier buried six from beyond the arc on Tuesday night, five in the second half, […]

Then the Phoenix hit six of seven shots, including three 3-pointers, to go up by six points on the opening possession of the second quarter. Their next field goal?

Boys’ basketball: Spruce Mountain slips away from Mt. Blue
It’s the kind of game the Phoenix admittedly have found a way to lose a few times this winter. Not this time, though. Andrew Darling — he of the earlier ‘T’ — sank two free throws to reclaim the lead with 2:22 to go, and Spruce Mountain kept cashing in from the line to polish off a […]
