MDI Girls Advance to Semifinals on Wednesday
It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win, and the MDI Trojan Girls advanced to the Eastern Maine Class B Girl's Semifinals on Wednesday, February 20th at 3:30 where they will take on the Presque Isle Wildcats who defeated Ellsworth Saturday afternoon. Presque Isle handed MDI their lone two losses in the 2012-2013 season.
MDI led 14-5 at the end of the 1st Quarter. Hannah Shaw had 6 points in the quarter for MDI and Molly Carroll hit a 2 pointer at the buzzer from the 3-point line. Winslow was led by Devin Fitzgibbons with 3, a 3 pointer.
It was 21-13 at the half. Alyssa Wood had 4 points in the quarter for Winslow, including a 3 pointer. Emily Lewis had 3 points in the quarter for MDI. Both teams had difficulty from the free throw line in the first half, as Winslow was 1-6 and MDI was 3-8.
In the 3rd Quarter, Winslow outscored MDI 8 to 4. MDI only scored one field goal in the quarter, that by Molly Carroll. Delaney Wood scored 4 points in the quarter for Winslow.
In the 4th Quarter, Winslow was trailing by 3 points for much of the quarter, and they were content to allow MDI to hold onto the ball. Devin Fitgibbons scored 8 points of her game high 13 in the 4th quarter, hitting 2 3-pointers. But to MDI's credit, they made enough free throws when it counted going 9-14 from the free throw line when Winslow was forced to foul, and came away with the victory.
MDI was led by Molly Carroll with 12 points. Carroll went 4-6 from the line including 3-4 in the 4th Quarter. Emily Lewis had 9 points for the Trojans. Winslow was led by Fitzgibbons with 13 points, including 3 3 pointers.
MDI improves to 17-2 on the season, while Winslow ends their season at 7-13. Presque Isle defeated MDI 55-46 in Presque Isle in December and in Bar Harbor 54-40 in January. Those were the closest margins of victory that Presque Isle experienced all season long. The game Wednesday at 3:35 will be heard on WDEA AM 1370 as well as on WDEA Internet Radio.
