FALMOUTH GAME SUMMARY 01/05/15 YORK 55 FALMOUTH 65 In a game that started out so well, with a 16-11 point first quarter lead and a 32-19 first half lead, a valuable lesson was learned as the Lady Yachtsmen used home court advantage and a loud crowd to overcome the Lady Wildcats. Despite scoring the same number of points from the floor, foul shooting by Falmouth and sloppy defense by the Wildcats resulted in the sudden turn of events. While Falmouth shot 24-32 from the line, York managed only 14-21. Now it's on to the very tough Greely squad on our home court.
