Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Mattanawcook). They put the hurt on the Calais Blue Devils with a sharp 72-48 victory on Friday. The Lynx have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won three games by 20 points or more this season.
Mattanawcook's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Andrew Oliver led the charge by going 6 for 15 en route to 19 points plus six rebounds and three steals. With that strong performance, Oliver is now averaging an impressive 15.4 points per game. Another player making a difference was James Trott, who went 7 for 10 en route to 17 points plus six rebounds.
Mattanawcook smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 12 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least nine offensive rebounds in three consecutive contests.
Mattanawcook's win bumped their record up to 6-2.
