BELFAST — The Medomak fifth and sixth grade girls basketball team claimed its third consecutive tournament championship after competing in nine games this weekend at the Waldo County YMCA tournament in Belfast. 

With a trio of games on Saturday, March 24 and six games on Sunday, March, 25, Medomak was hard at work all weekend with the hard work, and long hours in the gym, paying off quite nicely. 

The team would like to thank Holgerson, Inc. of Appleton for sponsoring the team, thus making it possible for the team to participate in this tournament. 

Game One: Medomak 59, Holbrook 8

“Medomak came out strong even though they all had to get up at 5 a.m. and head to Belfast for an arrival time of 7:30 a.m. for their 8 a.m. game,” said Medomak coach Andrea Williamson.

Medomak held quarterly advantages of 18-0, 34-0 and 44-2.

Game Two: Augusta 22, Medomak 21

In the fourth, Medomak held a 20-18 lead with a minute remaining in the contest. After Augusta committed three fouls, Medomak only connected on one free-throw to make it a 21-18 contest, with Medomak still on top. 

Augusta then cut the lead to 21-20 with 30 seconds remaining. 

In a flash, Augusta stole the ball from a Medomak player and was able to make a layup just prior to the final buzzer ringing, thus winning the contest and pushing Medomak into the loser’s bracket.
