After defeating Coginchaug 47-40 in the Shoreline Conference quarter-final played on Saturday at Coginchaug, Don Bugbee’s Old Lyme girls return again to Coginchaug this evening to face East Hampton in their Shoreline semifinal game. Tip-off is at 7 p.m.
Bugbee commented after Saturday’s game, “The girls played extremely well in this game and avenged a 27 point loss to Coginchaug earlier in the season. “Team defense was the key and we had contributions from everyone throughout the game. I couldn’t be happier for them and as always, I consider it a privilege to be their Coach.”
Looking ahead to tonight’s game, Bugbee said, “East Hampton is a very formidable opponent with a current record of 20-1. If the Girls play with the intensity shown in the Coginchaug game, adding, “I like our chances to come away with a win. It should prove to be a very good and competitive high school game.”
Go Wildcats!
