Martlets Begin to Find Their Wings
The Martlets of the Westminster Third's basketball pipeline took on the task of mastering falconry this afternoon, seeking practice on their home turf as the Indian Mountain School flew east to meet them in Simsbury. The battle was hard fought, with one opposing falcon towering higher than players and coaches combined, though the Martlets stayed strong and emphasized defensive fundamentals where they could. The first half saw Kade "Booster Seat" Smith '22 demonstrating aggressive gameplay on the court alongside Lucas "Slide Tackle" Wahlberg's '21 formidable efforts on defense. Posting and toasting on the foul line, Wahlberg and Hunter "Golden Star" Hoogkamp '21 put up the first points of the game. At half, the score was 12-17, a five-point game. Throughout much of the second half, the Martlets held the Falcons to those five points, only slipping at the end of the showdown when IMS launched its final aerial assault. Honorable mention must be made for Jack "Cocoa Rice Krispies" Roberts '20 for standout defense, offense and decorum on the court. Tomorrow, the Martlets look forward to another game against a formidable opponent: NMH.
