It was a cold, cold night and both Bedford and Stoneham needed an entire quarter to warm up their shooting hands. But in the end, it was Bedford’s bench that got the hot hand and won the game 58-44.
The first quarter ended with Stoneham up 10-8 as both sides had a problem hitting the basket. With less than a minute to go in the first quarter, Senior Mel Proulx subbed in and started a Bedford run that ended with the Bucs up 30-22 at halftime. Junior Joelle DeLia had 7 free throw attempt in the 2nd quarter.
