This game opened up in a packed Salem High School. Both teams fighting for a spot in the championship, but it was Pembroke that gained a lead early on.

 They did this by being aggressive and attacking the glass on both sides of the floor. The second half saw them up by a substantial margin but Laconia wasn’t going down easy.

 They started showing some real grit and the more they showed Pembroke's lead shrank.

 In the end it was too much of a deficit to overcome and Pembroke got the big win. The final 44-35 as they prepare for a championship appearance this weekend at UNH.
