BHS girls cagers taste tourney victory and defeat Raiders beat Attleboro before falling to top seed in sectional By David Curran dcurran@barnstablepatriot.com DAVID CURRAN PHOTO I'M GOIN' IN - Morgan Kendrew drives tothe basket duringthe BHS girls basketball team's 64-61 win over Attleboro in the preliminary round of the Division 1 South Sectional tournament Monday in Hyannis. The BHS girlsbasketball team launched its 2006 state tournament with a 64-61 win over Attleboro in Hyannis Monday, but then ran into top-seeded Braintree Wednesday and had the postseason end with a 70-50 defeat. "I'm proud of the girls," coach Nancy Freeman said afterward. "They worked hard. They never gave up." Sophomore Morgan Ken- drew led the 16Ul -seeded Raiders with 24 points in Braintree and junior Tashauna Ashmeade had seven rebounds. Barnstable ended the season with a 12-10 re- cord. Freeman said inop- portune turnovers hurt the Raiders against 19-2 Braintree, but so did in- consistent officiating. She said it seemed whenever Barnstable battled for a rebound , the officials blew the whistle,but Braintree's hard rebounds were let go. "It wasazoo under there," she said. The Raiders ' 13-of-14 shooting from the free throw line was a key in the nip-and-tuck win over 17th seeded Attleboro (11-10). "What can you say?" Freeman said. "The foul shooting did it for us." Barnstable built an early 21-9 lead as Kendrew hit three early three-point- ers, hut then the outside shots stopped falling and byhalftime,the visitors had narrowed the gap to 31-28. It was close throughout the second half. Attleboro took a momentary 44-43 lead with nine minutes to go, but Kendrewresponded with a three-pointer. Attle- boro tied it twice more, at 46 and at 48, but Lyon hit from the perimeter, then found Ashmeade cutting to the hoop to put Barnstable up 52-48. The Raiders never led hy more than four the rest of the way, but they also never trailed. Ashmeade led the team with 23 points - "Some of her shots were beautiful shots ,"Freeman said -and Kendrew had 20. Sopho- more Jill Lyon added 13 and dished out 10 assists. Senior Kourtney McNa- mara and sophomore Mar- garet Cobb each had four points. Ashmeade , Kendrew and Lyon each had six rebounds. "Overall, this was prob- ably the most enjoy able team I've coached," Free- man said. "They were dedi- cated , they were com- mitted , they were a joy to coach. They love each other. They enjoy each other 's company. That' s what it's all about. " Burke, Doherty looking forward to spring BHS' top tracksters finish season at state meet By David Curran dcurran@barnstablepatriot.com Melissa Doherty fin- ished ninth in the shot put and Mike Burke was 14th in the 55-meter hur- dles at Friday's All-State indoor track champion- ships at the Reggie Lewis Track & Athletic Center in Roxbury. The two seniors were the only members of the BHS team to advance to the state meet. "It was pretty cool being there for the first time," Burke said. Both said they could have done better. Doherty's 32-foot-10.75- inch toss wasn't up to the personal-best 35-foot-8.5- incher she mustered at the Old Colony League championships Feb. 6, and Burke 's 8.19 seconds was off the school-record 8.02 he posted at the state Division 1meet Feb. 18. Doherty said she turned an ankle a couple of weeks before the all-state meet and hadn't thrown as well since, and that she didn't feel fully warmed up. "A bunch of small things that all came together," she said. "It just wasn't my day." "I hit the second hurdle and that slowed me down a lot," said Burke. "I still had a good run, it was my third best time of the sea- son, but hitting the sec- ond hurdle... I didn't have enough time to recover." But if he was going to hit a hurdle , he was happy it didn't happen at the division meet, when he made the finals and finished fourth , earning four points in the meet. "I'd never seen any of our teams get points at a big meet. It was kind of cool for me to be the first one to do that that I'd seen," he said, later adding, "I set the school record when it counted. " Both Burke and Doherty said they're looking forward to spring track. "Most of the kids that did winter track are com- ing back, so we should have a pretty good team," said Burke, who will run the 110 hurdles, the 200. the long jump and the 4x100 relay. It's the first time a lot of kids have done that, the winter- spring combo." Doherty said she is look- ing forward to working with spring track throwing coach Paul Bentley. who coached the freshman girls basketball team this win- ter, and to resuming her favorite event , which is not included in winter track. "I'm just looking forward to next season for discus," she said, "because I like discus better."

The BHS girlshockey team submitted its best game of the season Wednesdayin defeating Chelmsford 6-1 at Kennedy Memorial Rink in Hyannis to advance to the quarterfinals of the state Division 2 South Sectional tournament. "Next game, we'll be a little bit better,"said coach Kim Sul- livan."It'snice; the team'sreally learned from every game we've played."

St.Joseph's.The date,time and venue of the game had not been announced as the Patriot went to press.

The visitors tied it midway through the period, but junior Katie Kirwan scored the first of her three goalsoff an assistfrom sophomore Michelle Manning at 14:34 to give the Raiders the lead for good. Thetop lineof Scarpato,Man- ning and Kirwan scored all six Barnstable goals - Kirwan had an assist to gowith her hat trick, Scarpato added three assists to her goal and Manning had two goals and two assists -but the second line,sophomore Kristen Logan and seniors Trenna Field and Megan Johnson, also exer- cised complete control of the ice as the Raiders enjoyed a 31-13 shot advantage. "Two different lines, two dif- ferent jobs," Sullivan said, then speakingofthe wholeteam,add- ed, "They're good kids, they're good players and whatever we ask of them, they step up and welcome that responsibility." SophomoreAbbyVanWormer was dominant at defense, with classmates Chelsea Fizell and Jessi Barron also turning in strong games along the blue line. "We play a very aggressive game,and somebody like Abby reallyfits intothat system,"said the coach. "She'savery physical player. All our defensemen like the physical game." Junior goalie Natalie Cohen made big stops when chal- lenged. "It's difficult for a goalie to not have alot of action and then be called upon," Sullivan said. "Natalie's very mentally sound and focused." The Raiders were playing their last game at Kennedy this season. "We had the support of the community, " said Sullivan , "and I hope everyone enjoyed the game." Auger retires as BHS baseball coach 32-year career capped by 19-3 season, Boston Globe Coach of the Year honors By David Curran dcurran@barnstablepatriot.com Dr.Peter Auger announced his retirement Wednesday as head coach of the Barnstable HighSchoolbaseballprogram after a 32-year career.

"I am sure that Coach Donovan will do a great job,"Francis stated. "We are lucky to have such a quali- fied, proven successor to continue the tradition." Ajunior varsity coach has not been named.
