Hebron and Seacoast matched up in a closely contested game. The Lumberjacks took a 29-26 lead into the half-time break and extended their lead in the third quarter (45-36). Seacoast then answered with a strong fourth quarter to narrow the Hebron lead. Some clutch shooting from Olivia Brown at the free-throw line gave Hebron a three-point lead with 11 seconds left on the clock, and though Seacoast netted one final basket, Hebron finished with the one-point win. Laura Dow and Olivia Brown had a number of good rebounds; Kaitlyn Paiton moved the ball well; Malorie Johnson netted three 3-pointers; and Janelle Bradish ended with a game-high 23 points. Mar Bartolome put in good time on the court too, doing her part to help earn the Hebron win.
