PUTNAM —Two Lady Mustangs who played crucial roles for the Putnam Science Academy prep basketball team this year, inked their Letters of Intent April 17.
Helena Delaruelle and Abigail Robinson both signed during the late signing period with Delaruelle attending the University of New Hampshire and Robinson staying in her home state of New York at the University of Albany.
Delaruelle averaged 5.4 points per game and just over 2.5 assists a game all while leading the Lady Mustangs in steals with 1.6 in her post grad year from Paris, France.
Robinson anchored the paint for the Lady Mustangs grabbing a team-high 6.6 rebounds per game and scoring just under 7 points for the 22-7 Mustangs.
Head Coach Derek Marchione said: “I know Abby and I will always maintain a strong relationship and I can’t wait to watch you play and be successful at the next level.” Robinson played for PSA both years as a program under coach Marchione.
Before Delaruelle could sign, Marchione said: “Throughout the year, Helena was huge for us. Anyone who watched us down at Nationals saw how good she is and her effort that she brought off the bench.” In the program’s second year, the Mustangs took home third place in the Independent School National Championships and saw eight girls sign full-ride Division 1 and Division 2 scholarships.
