Winged Beavers, Martlets' Delight

In their closest-fought battle yet, the Martlets of Westminster Third Boys’ basketball saddled their horses and galloped down the road to face off against the fearsome Winged Beavers of Avon Old Farms. Starting the game off with a bang, Baker "Cookie Dough" Morton '22 drained a three-pointer, setting the Martlets on what would be a nine-point breakaway for the majority of the first half. The Winged Beavers clawed their way back, tooth and nail against all odds despite impressive defensive play by Jack "Halfway to the Moon" Roberts '20 and yet another star performance by Harrison "Gimme the Loot" Lehman '21. At halftime, the Beavers had brought the score to 15-14, and the Martlets continued to hold them to a single point difference for the first nine minutes of the second half, trading points like blows in a boxing ring. Third Form hopeful Kade "Cereal Course" Smith proved to be a playmaker in the second half, though in the end the team found its battleship sunk by a string of three-point shots from the Winged Beavers. Fear not, the Martlets face off against AOF again in just a few short weeks.
