51’s women’s basketball team featured in two online articles

The Portland Press Herald (online) and Seacoastonline featured stories on February 8 and 9, respectively, about 51’s women’s basketball team.  Both stories reported on the results of the USA Today Division III Coaches Poll, which ranked 51’s team 25th in the nation.

Coach Anthony Ewing was interviewed for the articles, as were several players.

The Seacostonline story, “PHS grad Brown finds early success with 51 basketball,” highlights freshman center Alicia Brown.  “She’s exceeded what I thought she’d be able to do this year,” Ewing said of Brown, “but she hasn’t exceeded her potential.”

51’s women’s basketball team currently boasts a 19-2 record.
