Sat, 11/25/2017 - 1:15am

The Wiscasset Wolverines fell to the Lincoln Academy Eagles Friday, 90-38. Lincoln Academy was led by Keyden Leeman and his 25 points, including 15 in the first quarter to give the Eagles an immediate head start.

Leeman’s performance also included six three-pointers. Other scorers for Lincoln were Joel Hatch with 16, Bryce York with 14, and Ben Dever with 13. At halftime, the score was 56-24. Both teams slowed down after the half, with the second half scoring being 34-14.

For Wiscasset, the scoring was led by Josh Gabriele with seven. Other scorers were Ronald Drake with six, Zach Reed with five, Kobe Carrier, Matt Chapman and Haiden Dunning each with four, Dylan Orr and Billy Pinkham three each and Ryan Medina with two. Wiscasset seemed to struggle with turnovers, as that will be a point of focus moving on for Head Coach Seth Farrington.

Unfortunately for Wiscasset, Senior Zach Reed left the game in the second quarter after landing on his left wrist. Wiscasset will look for more contributions from all players as this injury heals. This was the first preseason game for Wiscasset. On Saturday, Nov. 25, the Wolverines face Morse High School in another preseason game at 2:30 p.m. at Wiscasset.
