WINDHAM – A defeat suffered 12 months ago has proven the impetus for a season the Windham girls hope lasts another week.

Goffstown scored on a driving lay-up with 0.8 seconds left to force OT but Pelham didn't let that get it down. Rebecca DeBaldo (21 points) and Lauren Anderson took control in OT and the No. 11 Pythons earned the upset over the No. 6 hosts 68-63. Hannah Paitchel and Alicia Gendron combined for 24 points and six 3-pointers.

Pelham almost saw a big lead disappear in the fourth quarter, but Becca DeBaldo (12 points) made a couple of big defensive stops down low with 15 seconds left to hold off St. Thomas Aquinas for a 53-51 victory.

Becca DeBaldo scored 17 points and grabbed 15 rebounds as Pelham knocked off previously-undefeated Goffstown 53-48. Jordan Parece added 13 points, 10 assists and outstanding defense for the winners.

Becca DeBaldo poured in 22 points, including netting a layup with 1 second remaining to lift Pelham girls basketball 45-43 over ConVal. 

Battling back to tie the game going into the final eight minutes, Pelham fought hard but fell just short of upsetting Hollis-Brookline, 54-53. Becca DeBaldo (16 points) and Jordan Parece (12 points) led the Python offense.
