Wheaton met the challenge in the second half, matching the Nighthawks strong shooting and intensity to briefly take the lead late in the game. To their credit the Nighthawks survived the onslaught with key baskets, defensively intensity and clutch free throws down the line, none more important than Sonny Abraham’s (Lynn, MA/Lynn) 4 clutch free throws with less then two minutes in the game. Freshman Magliore was huge in the victory, leading all scorers with 27 points, while Matt Stanton (Lynnfield, MA/Lynnfield) 11 points, 8 rebounds set the high intensity level from the get go while leveling an outstanding block early in the game.
Wheaton was led by Josean Vega (Pawtucket, RI/St. Raphael’s) and Mike Stanton, brother of Matt, as the two combined for 16 and 13 points respectfully.
Newbury Improves to 3-18 and will travel to Lasell College on Tuesday, while Wheaton drops to 15-6
