PELHAM — Running uphill all night, No. 8 Pelham High ran out of time and energy, falling to No. 9 Lebanon, 47-42, last night in the New Hampshire Division 2 playoff opener.
"We just kept digging holes for ourselves, and we never quite recovered," said Pelham coach Matt Regan, whose club actually led twice, 1-0 and 19-18.
Most of the night, though, belonged to Lebanon, which built advantages of 16-8 after
one quarter and 28-19 at the half.
"They killed us inside, on the offensive glass," said Regan. "It was 1-2-3 shots every possession. We did a better job in the second half."
Lebanon (47): David Hampton 5 6-9 18, Matt Cowles 5 1-2 12, Tyler Silver 1 2-2 5, Dom Morrill 2 0-0 4, Colin McNamee 0 2-2 2, Mark Davidson 2 2-4 6, Totals 15 13-19 47
