Last night, Head Coach Tom Nelson honored the outgoing 12th-grade athletes on Varsity I Boys Basketball, before the team went on to defeat Kimball Union Academy 57-44 in front of an energetic and roaring crowd.
This marked the 18th win on the season, setting the Gators as 11-4 in the New England AA league—among the most competitive leagues in the nation.
Lead scorers Andre Mills had 22 points (surpassing 1,500 career points), Ta’quan Williams had 12, and Windston Legentus had 11.
“Huge defensive contributions from Moni Thomas (’24),” Head Coach Tom Nelson said. “He really played a strong game.”
The team will play again at home against Wilbraham and Monson Academy on Saturday at 2 p.m.
