The underachievers beat the overachievers on Friday night.
Windham downed Woodstock 61-44 in a game that featured one team that is not happy with how it's been playing and another team that has been playing above what was expected of them.
Woodstock, prior to their loss to the Whippets, had won seven of their first 10 games. That's pretty good for a team that lost just about its' entire starting lineup to graduation.
"We're overachieving maybe," Woodstock coach Rob Mileski told me Friday night, "We're making a couple of plays and some shots are going down."
On the other side of the court, Windham had a 6-4 record coming into the game with a team that was expected to, not only contend, but likely win the Eastern Connecticut Conference Medium Division and also be in the midst of the battle for the league title.
"We're not playing together, the chemistry doesn't seem to be flowing," Whippets coach Bill Strand said.
Woodstock and Windham will be the featured topics in our Monday notebook, check it out on Monday morning. Also, we will update the scoring leaders in the area for both boys and girls and have the top active career point leaders in girls basketball.
