PHS ranked
5th in state
By Shawn Bates
The Lady Clippers are having their way it seems with all opponents with the exception of Montville and an overtime thriller with Fitch. The Ladies are currently ranked fifth in the state and have a 13-2 record.
Last week they faced St. Bernard’s and won at home 36-24 Jan. 22 behind Abby St.Martins‘s 17 points followed by Kaleigh Lyons’ 8 points and Molly McKeon’s 7 points.
Then Jan. 25 the Ladies traveled down Rt. 395 to face the Redgals in a 41-39 barn burner. The Redgals boxed and one Kaleigh Lyons, who only scored 4 points Molly Mckeon 11 points and Abby St.Martin netted 10 points for the victory in Killingly.
Boys
The Clippers had a rough go at it this week facing 3 good ECC teams in Lyman, Griswold and Plainfield.
The Clippers lost to Lyman 65-63, 48-62 to Griswold and 65-28 to Plainfield. With the Clippers facing Grasso, Thompson and Montville — all teams they have previously beaten this year —wins should put coach Deary and his boys into the State Tournament by the weekend if all goes well. Putnam is 6-7 at this time.
