Playing in front of a capacity crowd in the opposition’s own gymnasium, Drake Gavin, who was named the Shoreline Conference Player of the Year over the weekend, poured in the points scoring 33 by the end of the game.

Following a long tradition at Lyme-Old Lyme High School, the seniors pose with oversize cut-outs of their heads used later by the fans to show support for the team.
