If Danvers was feeling good fresh off their 58-30 takedown of Salem Academy Charter last Tuesday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Falcons were outmatched by the Beverly Panthers and fell 80-36. While losing is never fun, the Falcons can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Massachusetts basketball rankings (they are ranked 99th, while the Panthers are ranked 18th).
Several Falcons players turned in solid performances despite ultimately coming up short. Perhaps the best among those players was Kyle Sillars, who posted 11 points along with six rebounds and four steals. Sillars has been hot recently, having posted three or more steals the last four times he's played. Luca Tirella was another key player, putting up nine points and seven boards.
