Coming into tonight’s matchup Mascoma Valley were the underdogs. They had a tough challenge ahead of them facing a very solid Hopkinton team.

 However, they were up for the challenge and didn’t back down one bit. They ended up leading throughout most of the first three-quarters of action.

 Once the fourth quarter hit Hopkinton was fully dialed in and not letting go of this game that easily. Multiple lead changes and a solid free throw percentage from both sides made for a very tense scene.

 In the end, Hopkinton clawed back into the game and held onto the lead at the final buzzer. They took this one by a final of 56-51. A great showing from both sides
