Sydnie Thayer had 13 points, eight rebounds and five steals at Richmond Wednesday, Jan. 16 but the Wolverines lost 54-32 to the Bobcats.

Richmond shut out WMHS by a score of 31-0 through the first half of play. The Wolverines outscored their hosts 13 to 9 in the third period.

Zoe Waltz finished with five points and three blocked shots, and Kateleen Trask had six rebounds and four points for the Wolverines. Jade Rego had five rebounds and one blocked shot.

Richmond’s Hannah Moholland scored 17 points and Macy Carver had 15.

Wiscasset made two of eight free throws compared to six of nine for Richmond.

“We really missed Alice (Yokabaskas) our center last night. Freshman Madison (Carrier) really stepped up and played hard to fill Alice's absence,” said Wolverine Coach Tom Philbrick.

“Jade (Rego) did a nice job in the paint working hard and playing physical. I thought she had some nice rebounds. She’s been working hard on taking more shots.”

The loss dropped WMHS’s Mountain Valley Conference record to 0-11. Richmond is 5-7.

Following Friday night’s game with Telstar at Stover Auditorium, WMHS will have two home games remaining. They’ll host Richmond Saturday, Jan. 26 and Monmouth Jan. 30.
