Tough loss down the Cape

The Whitman-Hanson girls basketball team lost to Sandwich yesterday afternoon by the final score 52-50. Senior guards Cassie Chernicki and MacKenzie Hatfield led the Panthers with 13 points. Senior forward Brittney Porter added 10.  The game was tied at 23 at halftime and the Panthers fought back hard from a 16-point deficit in the late 3rd quarter/early 4th quarter to get a shot at the end to tie the game.  But the ball hit the backboard and rim but wouldn't fall.

The team is now 6-3, 5-0 in the Patriot League.  Next game is Monday afternoon in a girls/boys double header at Bridgewater-Raynham.  Girls game is scheduled for 5pm.
