If you are a high school basketball fan, you had a little treat on Monday.
President's Day at Plainfield High School is what it was for many as the Eastern Connecticut Conference held its girls basketball quarterfinals.
The tournament was rather well attended, especially the first three games, and the games didn't disappoint either.
Eighth-seeded Windham was in the game with top-seed NFA until the middle of the fourth quarter. Stonington and Fitch also played into the fourth until the Bears went on a 13-0 run to put the game out of reach.
The much anticipated third meeting between Montville and Bacon Academy was more one-sided than expected as the Indians threw a new defense at the Bobcats and walked away with a 15-point win.
As expected, even though East Lyme was the sixth-seed, the Vikings downed third-seed St. Bernard in a game between Large and Small Division teams.
MVP of the day- Heather Buck. Her 36 point, 18 rebound, 4 block performance helped Stonington escape with a win over Fitch even without head coach Paulla Solar in attendance.
