the red rate is i think at ten and two and i believe how much nine in three great records both and we were mentioning just before the broadcast that watertown seems to have a little bit of the height advantage here but we're set to go there's the tip murphy wins it for watertown and we're off and away she makes the other team defender she's very quick to move in under the hoop in spite of a small shot absolutely really quick off the dribble and speak of the devil here she is he's up to call and that's going to be a shot clock violation on the scoreless game here about a minute into the first quarter there to almost will match watertown with the press and now they'll back up to half court as good time all game six fifteen to go was watch and belmont against burlington here the girls game and that was a game where even though they were a little bit slopp on the open person six three game here five minutes remaining in the first quarter belmont showing a little bit of aggression on the defensive and it pays off watertown turns the ball over marauder basketball well i'm biased as a football guy mr messer but defense wins championships that's right so here is call for belmont to wink live hard fake inside no go back to call call with the long watertown's head coach pat ferdinand going to call a timeout talk to his team a little bit so six to three three thirty six left two great middlesex league teams and probably one of the best rivalries in the state chad i am really going and i think the proximity of the communities have a lot to do but hoping to reverse that trend a little bit next thanksgiving day but i agree with you it's when i came here i didn't know too much really about either community and it struck me how many of these kids have known each other since elementary school except middle school playing against each other bringer summer ball together right well out of the time out here sixty three three thirty six left in the first still has their starting team out there no substitutions yet quick inbound there by way clark got to be physical down they get murphy again sarah stewart on the first one with nice be nice to get shannon murphy out of there a little bit of that watertown size out of the game blood that's too on her so we'll see if coach heart goes to the bench here for some are it doesn't look like it just yet murphy's first off the front end and in ten to four belmo just giorgio and therefore when clara she'll take a seat with two thousand the first quarter second shot falls and it's a ten five game tightly guarded by hannah mcmahon from watertown great job there fighting to get the possession arrow is number twenty two grand a prop will be watertown's ball the belmont sour on the next j so much seems to be like him a zone here early chad much as they seem to be like in the zone here you know they've been a stand out man to man and then drop back into that two three zone works first is good and it's a four point ballgame really both basketball programs have great coaches at the front coach hart for the women's and coach pritchard for the men's krista for a to try on here try and look inside gets the screen goes the other way now she goes to stuart who goes back to to try on trying with the drive she's stuffed by rourke watertown comes up with it inside of one minute here and go a little bit earlier than a long shot there by mcmahon is no good  try on carrying for belmont she has it up top of the belmont bench getting into it imploring their team to play defense here's roark with the take they're going to get the foul on the floor standing on the baseline so eight point nine seconds plenty of time from belmont to point one up absolutely make it to possession game to end the quarter great body control down there on the baseline yeah right try and look at the end bounce she does krista for you with the clock ticking down she's got three seconds over to try and try to the baseline put the shot up nothing but facts no good in that'll end the first quarter score stands ten seven marauders good job by lions to get up that other attempt so ten to seven belmont the game is what kind of what we expected yeah i think we thought we'd have a good back and forth game here definitely have one of those i have a sneaking suspicion that i'm saying anything crazy that team the rebound like we're going to be close to underway here walking out on to the floor for the before she moved pivot foot moved can't do that watertown coming back and attend a seven game here no good i will come back i was watching the reading game and you know what i think about basketball is this so much interaction between coaches and officials  jenny call not able to keep the handle movie watertown basketball they were looking at them all rebound by sarah stewart us and we get another possession our i was ready for the kid anyway to look at the replay and later on we're going to have to go to the big screen go under the hood yeah right i don't know about that it was ever against the replay until tomorrow i'm not sure i know which player he called the drama llama victor going to that's a good question whether or not they got him on whether or not they caught her on the wing there on the inside out pass either way it makes it belmont  now certainly up there with a shot from lark is good brings watertown with in one case is picked up a little bit here that's five for the red raiders boys team up in the front row watching their fellow marauders in this first game here right here is christof henri kicks it over to try on trying to the block loses the handle it's need one of those you're going to see one for the guys too i think and paul ramsey very similar play i was doing the little things right right falls really come on and savage you know obama's been a little bit sloppy with let's get the shot off it's no good so at the end of the first top score stands watertown one thousand belmont eighteen great game here check very good game very good game with the boost in absolutely those are good people good people to know right so score stands nineteen eighteen here just under way in the third quarter watertown with a one point lead free throws shortstop sara stewart yet again but not able to hang onto it until now it's now for the red raiders over the mcmahon back to its analysis long shot is good the twenty two eighteen watertown to possession game down there  watertown now with the opportunity to open it up belmont going to press watertown all break it down in the corners lands oh she'll look inside to rourke no call elias can't finish watertown up with that back and forth we go plan zone out for the red raiders top top dance analysis she finds rock rock will kick it over to make man in our shots no good krista for a nifty dribbling down there when the marauders need to tighten it up a little bit yeah second for gretta puts caitlin rourke on the line for the red raiders with a two point lead first shots no good off the front of the rem stays twenty four twenty two two fifty seven left unable to get to the basket is belmont right now makes it a six point game closing in on two minutes in the third quarter chris before an hour for belmont she's been the light show great feet inside nice job maigret a prop to get to  filed on the lay up attemp remains twenty eight twenty four one forty seven left in the third second shot short sabatini krista for an hour for belmont over t i must say i like this guard combination  coming back now for belmont dallas now for watertown twenty eight twenty five red raiders inside of one minute left in the third quarter now it's roark to cordy according is good and it's a two point game twenty eight twenty six six seconds left trying to get last shot as watertown open his lands all good and into the fourth quarter we go on to help home battles going talking with coach pressure last night a little bit and i think you still are going to be on the bench today unfortunately and i think they're starting our number forty two ferdinand in his place ok sprained ankle nothing to nothing too serious but you know there are i'm sure looking forward to the turn of iran and they're going to need him for that so all right exactly the penn state baseball had met did a great job up at the wakefield siding roll up there and i tell you he's a great athlete i look forward to seeing this boy's game too after the exciting conclusion of this one you see he's a junior rising senior next year we're off here in the fourth two point game murphy from watertown great ball moving here by the red scuse me way closer to call stewart rather krista for you now foul on the floor not enough to put belmont to the stripe just yet while their motion and one on one now it looks like it's going to be seven so krista four is going to go to the line for the one and one board initially showed six could be a big advantage for belmont right now they've got seven towels belmont's only got two maps a lily will take seven twenty three left this is what middlesex week basketball is all about right here and to dallas for a watertown guarded tightly by sabbath you know a long pass over to rourke they're going to get mcmahon for stepping on the sideline and it's belmont basketball he doesn't believe it but the guy with the whistle is trying to make the rules sorry coach ferdinand was a little irate but passes a little bit of a force there and it's no good and of course that one and say this stuff or both coaching staffs watertown and belmont just great job by it by both coaches if not aggressively going after officials you know and it's always nice to really see good conversations between coaches and officials in any athletic contest right after all it's only a game it's only a game and i school game at that but a lot of fun ton of fun on belmont bench played very well tonight while they're out of status they're a deep team yeah yeah a lot of athletes over on that bench you know and just even looking at the program stacked up side by side with watertown we got three more on the roster than watertown does sounds six twenty two thirty twenty eight watertown and if you're not excited right now you can check your pulse right because there is something wrong when watching this game with the exactly i mean i just figure that if they're going to call that contact down there they got to call the contact on the other end of the floor but they're not really getting those calls down well i thought you i thought you put a shoulder and a share of course i'm only an amateur referee the watertown fans don't like it but they're amateur referees to us as we are and as our way as are we all make a lattice of the line now for not be a starter playing thirty minutes every every bar city game but you can still be a contributor to the identity and culture of the team and a status need to practice against somebody you've got it the better your we say in football the time we're only as good as our scout team yeah right well last four minutes of this game belmont pressing watertown breaks it it's lands zero for the red raiders corti now on the way inside the murphy to rourke work with the jump start kicks it out to lands alanzo for three it's short belmont up with it will slow it down rebound goes up with it that play sure has worked fine and one of the two big big players down low are nice little feed to a streaker coming right up the middle of the land for an easy way and thirty eight thirty four right now with two all four left it's going to be important to see what i want does defensively out of this timeout as well right i know we're concerned about their trip down the floor need to score obviously but gotta do something to stop the the two big there's the first horn and we're going to see both teams come out so set for an exciting conclusion here it's still anybody's game indicative of two teams are very similar record absolutely but if you're talking about how similar these two teams were coming into tonight they're separated by two points in two minutes and four seconds here so it's been a great game so far and hope to keep it going to be murphy at the line now they are saying she's a great volleyball player to us is i imagine those are two sports that go really well together right inside is murphy sarah stewart is it is that's for for so with one minute eight seconds left in a four point game it's going to be shana murphy at the line big shots here first one is three in a row for thirty nine thirty four making tan checks back in freshman  gets rocking once again i don't know how much of they can hear us over that band you know i was watching the broadcast i did the other night reading broadcast and right you'd be surprised they can actually hear is pretty well and hear the band at the same time jeremy and his and a little bit of fun for us as we see coach pritchard walking in the boys varsity coach walking in ready for his game in a little while here one zero eight forty thirty four so that what comes from three seconds yeah one o four and we will hold our breath for just a little while longer right the three point game though is really changed the perception of basketball and the way it's played a whole different ball game although it's been relatively nonexistent for belmonte or not this was the score forty thirty well used up about half of the clock forty seven point three is what's on the board this is going to come back for belmont see the boys team hadn't and now forty three eighty six point basketball game here in the fourth quarter between these two storied middlesex league rivals plans i was on the line for the red raiders shooting no one in one direction shooting the two corrections shoot of under at this game under their control  while it's not that that's analysis free throws will make it completely out of reach but it's going to be pretty close or first one rattles then henri with the runner off the glass is no good and that's the ballgame ladies and gentlemen watertown comes away with it it was a back and forth game all night chat but watertown comes away with a victory forty six to thirty four they made the fall shots when they had to make them in the last two minutes and that's what built their lead up absolutely it was an excellent game great basketball game by two great programs as the ladies shake hands now chad and i going to take a short break here on p h s sports t v but will be back for the boys game
