of CPA cut
Petition seeks tax surcharge rollback
By Susanna Sheehan, Clipper Staff

Tremont Street resident
Jim Sullivan said the tough
economic situation is just one
of the reasons it is time to roll
back the Community Preser-
vation Act tax surcharge from
three percent to a quarter of
one percent.
This week, Sullivan pre-
sented the Board of Selectmen
with a citizen’s petition for an
annual town meeting warrant
article to decrease the CPA
surcharge.

Martecchini, 47, of Heri-

I measured the highest December snowfall this past month recorded
since I began keeping records in 1984. This easily beat the previous
high of 18.2” of December of 1995 which was part of the record
winter snowfall of ‘95/’96 when I recorded 103.6”. Could this past
December be a portend of things to come?

Election season kicks off
By Justin Graeber, Clipper
Editor
justin@clipperpress.com
The Duxbury election sea-
son has begun, and there are
already several residents run-
ning for Andre Martecchini’s
slot on the Board of Selectmen
–– including Martecchini him-
self.
Martecchini announced his
decision to seek re-election at
Monday’s Board of Selectmen
meeting.
He said he didn’t feel the
time was right to step down.
“We had a rough year,” he
said. “This may not be the best
time, from the town’s perspec-
tive, to make a big shuffle on
the board.”
Martecchini said he feels
several things he has been
working on for some time,
such as a push to regionalize
more services, and the drive to
build a new police and fire fa-
cility, are starting to bear fruit.
Three others have taken
out papers to run for selectman.
One candidate is Christopher
Donato of Chandler Street.
Donato did not immediately
return a phone call seeking
comment. Another is Planning
Board member George Wad-
sworth; however Wadsworth
said Monday morning he did
not want to run against Mar-
tecchini.

ly powerful,” he said. “He is
well-liked, if he wants that job
he can have it.”
Wadsworth is also up for
re-election for his seat on the
Planning Board. On Monday,
he had not yet taken out papers
to run for re-election, but said
he would run to keep his seat
on that board if he withdrew
from the selectman’s race.
Wadsworth said his main
motivation for running for se-
lectman was to bring his ex-
perience with water systems

It is all called “the lure of the list.” If you are the competi-

the population voted. When
did that last happen in the
United States of America?
We were blessed by an
invitation from the king to at-
tend the long-delayed Coro-
nation. It was not hard to say
“let’s go!”, but sorting out the
tickets and transit visas to In-
dia required some effort as the
date was only a week away.
We left Boston early on
Nov. 1, and arrived in Paro,
Bhutan, around noon on the
third. Our stay in Delhi, the
capital of India, was brief
but very moving. Observing
Mount Everest on the flight to
Bhutan was very special.
Seeing the nation’s people
wearing “national dress” on a
regular basis reminded me a
bit of prep schools and dress
codes, but almost everyone
that we saw and met seemed to
show in some way a regard for
the national goal for progress,
“Gross National Happiness.”
His Majesty, the boy who
lived upstairs, had his picture
on every street corner and
nearly every shop window.
The streets were festooned
with colorful banners and
drapes, and there was a clear
sense of anticipation. We saw
many interesting things and
places. We were hooked.
Wednesday evening, An-
thony Smith, the retired Presi-
dent of Magdalen College at
Oxford, England, became our
neighbor and companion for
the rest of our visit. He is a
brilliant, funny and kind man,
who also knew the king on a
personal basis. The Corona-
tion on Thursday was colorful
and unusual.
We shivered in the grand
courtyard of the 12th Century
Dzong, and finally a proces-
sion of dancers, warriors, ani-
mals and musicians playing
Medieval music led the way
for the entrance of the king,
his saffron yellow robe desig-
nating His Majesty.
Bhuddhist monks chanted,
some brief music rang out,
and then on a very cold and
sunny morning the king and
the Royal Family, along with
the most prominent dignitar-
ies, proceeded south to the
Golden Throne Room. Jigme
Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck
was crowned by his father, His
Majesty the Fourth Druk King,
shortly after the announced
time of 8:31 a.m.
After the first ceremony
and a brief rest, His Holiness
the Je Khenpo and His majesty
entered, and took their places.
There was some more medi-
eval sounding music, on horns
and percussion, the like of
which I had never seen
nor heard. Then a large
number of Bhud-
dhist monks per-
formed incan-
tations which
were specific
for the oc-
casion,
crowning
a new king.
The crown-
ing was done
again by the Je Khenpo, and
I felt an odd sensation. I know
a king. Well.
The rite and ritual called
for everyone in the first, small
ceremony, and everyone in the
second larger ceremony we
attended, and the third open,
public ceremony at the na-
tional stadium that afternoon,
to present the king a silk scarf,
and speak to him. We had been
provided silk scarves by our
Protocol Officer, and when
our turn came to offer our gift
and speak with the boy who
lived upstairs, now the young-
est monarch on Earth, his face
broke into a huge smile and
laugh. “So I have to get cor-
onated for you to come see
me?” was his greeting. After
some pleasantry, I thought of
how the little nation of Bhutan
is facing many challenges, so
at this formal time I told him
that I would pray for his suc-
cess.
That night, there was a
state dinner for the President
of India, and we were on the
guest list. While waiting for
the officials to arrive, we stood

writer. He made a visit to Duxbury in 1998.
near the band, a wind group
wearing kilts and metal hel-
mets.
We were introduced to
the President of India by the
King of Bhutan. I mumbled
our names and the king res-
cued me by telling her that we
were his “great teachers from
America.” Okay, whatever.
We had dinner with an Am-
bassador, a high commission-
er, a member of the Cabinet
and another fine fellow whose
title I forget. By this point in
our trip I found
it getting hard

try in Central Asia bordered
by India and China.
to keep from laughing.
Am I really here?
The next day was spent at
the National Stadium, where a
crowd of about 25,000, maybe
four percent of the entire pop-
ulation watched native dances
and musical performances.
At one point I went to
the Gent’s, but was told by a
guard to wait, as “His Majes-
ty is inside.” A lucky break, I
thought. After what seemed a
peculiarly long time the king’s
younger brother, another fine
young man, came out, and my
hopes were a bit dashed. Then
suddenly His Majesty, the boy
from upstairs, appeared, and it
took all I could manage to keep
from laughing about meeting a
king outside the Men’s Room.
But he laughed first, and prom-
ised to see us before we left.
That night there was a
large banquet at the Tashich-
ho Dzong. It was a very cold,
outdoor buffet, and the guests,
perhaps 500, were all given
blankets, hand warmers, and
hot water bottles. The Royal
Academy of Performing Arts
put on a music/theater perfor-
Wednesday, January 7, 2009
mance. I was sitting next to
the Attorney General and he
talked right through the whole
thing, so I did not get the philo-
sophical message of the fable.
But to see a performance in a
frigid 12th century courtyard
was still special.
Our dinner for that eve-
ning sounded a bit vague ac-
cording to our protocol officer,
but it seemed like we might
get the chance to be part of a
small dinner with the king at
his residence.
And that is how it turned
out. We had the great pleasure
of being part of a group of
16 who had dinner with
His Majesty at the end
of the official celebra-
tions of the coronation.
It was held in a
small “social”
house, just
next to the log
cabin where
the king lives,
beside a happy
sounding river
that flows past the Tashichho
Dzong.
I have been advised to not
fully relate the details of that
evening, particularly the time
spent around the bonfire, but I
feel safe to say that it was cer-
tainly one of the most enjoy-
able evenings of our lives. My
wife and I sat on a sofa to eat,
and the king sat on the arm and
talked and laughed with us for
a long time. For me, the Crown
Prince from the House of Du-
mas was now truly a king,
a young man who could not
only look back on establish-
ing democracy in his country,
but also on simpler days, when
he was the shy, quiet boy who
lived upstairs.
The warmth of the fire,
the familiar stars in the sky,
and the kindness, wisdom, and
good humor of the young king
left me feeling that everything
would be okay.

New plans shown for
Millbrook Crossing 40B
By Susanna Sheehan, Clipper Staff
susanna@duxburyclipper.com
The latest plans for the
proposed mixed-use develop-
ment called Millbrook Cross-
ing show 24 rental apartments
with six affordable units built
above 25,000 square feet of
commercial space.
Located at St. George
Street and Railroad Avenue,
Millbrook Crossing is being
developed by S & G Associ-
ates, LLC of Osterville, which
consists of land owner Ben
Goodrich of Strawberry Lane
and custom builders Floyd
and Ronald Silvia of Silvia
& Silvia Associates, Inc. The
project involves five separate
parcels of land totaling 6.2
acres. The current Millbrook
market, former Back River
fish store and closed Goodrich
Lumber building will all be
demolished to make way for
three new buildings, two at the
corner of St. George Street and
one at the site of the old lum-
ber building.
The project is being pro-
posed under Chapter 40B, a
state law that allows builders
to bypass many local zoning
laws and town board reviews
when developing land, pro-
vided that 25 percent of the
housing units are below mar-
ket rate.
The latest plans show sev-
en one-bedroom units, 15 two
bedroom, two bathroom apart-
ments, and three three-bed-
room, two bath apartments.
Six units will be leased for the
below-market rate, including
all the three-bedroom units.
Millbrook Crossing develop-
ment manager Dean Harrison
of Wrentham said the afford-
able units would be suitable
for young professionals or se-
nior citizens.
œÕ“Lˆ>Ê,`°]Ê-Ìiʛ£]Ê*i“LÀœŽi]Ê
ÊÊUÊÊÇn£‡nÓȇäÓ{£
All the residences will be
rentals. However, some of the
commercial space will be sold
as condos, said Harrison.
These plans differ from
ones shown to selectmen in
April 2008. That Chapter 40B
proposal showed 46 rental
units of affordable housing,
including at least five low-
income apartments. The ma-
jority of the apartments were
reserved for people who make
sixty percent or less of the
median income in Duxbury,
or $48,300, and five were for
those considered low income,
who earn 30 percent or less
than the median income, or
$24,150.
In 2007, a conventional
development with at least 16
apartments and retail/com-
mercial space was rejected by
the Board of Health in 2007
because it needed a mounded
septic system, which is pro-
hibited by the health board for
new construction in Duxbury.
In April, selectmen said
they liked the mixed-use ap-

of 2008. The proposed project on St. George Street has undergone

project.
proach, however they were
unhappy with the plan, saying
it had too much housing and
not enough commercial space.
They felt that business in the
Millbrook area must continue
and wanted to see more of it.
According to Attorney Ga-
reth Orsmond of Rackemann,
Sawyer and Brewster in Bos-
ton, the latest plans take into
consideration the selectmen’s
and the public’s comments.
He said the commercial space
would house businesses that
are useful for the develop-
ment’s residents, such as a
small market.
Selectmen were more re-
ceptive to the latest plan.
“I think this is a great im-
provement,” said Selectman
Andre Martecchini. “This is a
better use of this property than
16 units of rental housing.
This is a commercial district
and it is essential that we can
develop as much commercial
property in town that can sus-
tain business.”
Selectman Betsy Sullivan
said: “I appreciate that you
took so many of our sugges-
tions to heart. This shows a
balance of affordability and
rental units. This is a huge step
forward.”

Witten asked whether de-
velopers still plan to use a

Winter scenes around Duxbury Photos by Jess Tucker & Lisa Keohan

Susan Nevins and son Coner (age 4, but soon to be 5 in

just a few days) bundle together on a sled at the North
Hill golf course Saturday afternoon.

Melting snow and patches of

grass poking through the sheets
of white couldn’t keep these
sledders off the course at North
Hill.

...However, this sledder didn’t

have as much luck with the
jump!

Mathew Stiles (age 4) launches into the air while sledding at

the North Hill golf course Saturday.

This is a New Years picture of a snowman skiing on West Street. It was too
cold to go skiing, so Madison Vuilleumier and Mary and Caleb Keohan sent
their snowman skiing instead! The greens and fairways at North Hill were dotted with sledders instead of golfers this Saturday.

Tough call for turf field
I
t was only a few weeks
after the School Com-
mittee was presented
with a check representing
the cost of a new artificial
turf field that the Massachu-
setts Supreme Judicial Court
dropped a bomb on Duxbury’s
plans. Handing down a rul-
ing in the case of Seideman et
al v. the City of Newton, the
Court ruled that Community
Preservation Funds could not
be used to improve existing
parks, but could only be used
for the creation of new parks
and recreation areas.
Duxbury’s Town Meet-
ing voters approved the CPC
funds for the artificial turf field
at the high school in 2007,
which would replace the exist-
ing natural grass field.
On Oct. 8, turf commit-
tee member Peter Naton told
the School Committee that
the $1.1 million needed for
the field had been raised, and

DHS Athletic Director
Thom Holdgate said that the
PRIDE Committee is look-

ready to give up on the field
quite yet. Troy noted in his
memo that there is pending
legislation on Beacon Hill that
may change what CPC funds
can be used on.

seek relief through a Special
Act of the General Court,”
Troy wrote. “I leave this de-

Morse, who landed a back flip
with an iron cross and a D-spin
while listening to some tunes
in his helmet, couldn’t believe
he won a national title.
“It hasn’t really sunk in
yet, but it’s pretty amazing [to
win the title]. I had a tough
year and it feels good to lay
down a run,” Morse said. “I
was pretty amped to go. The
moguls were a little bit firmer
than they were in the morn-
ing, but I just tried to keep it
together and let it run through

was at it again, adjusting to

Duxbury’s warriors Dragons Winter Sports Schedule

continued from page one
(csbaonline.org on the inter-
net) the theory reaches all the
way to Duxbury kids like Jake
and Jim standing in harm’s
way. The concept is simple
enough. Counter-insurgency
warfare fails unless the people
of the region in question feel
safe and feel certain that the
security offered by the mili-
tary, the police, or the Coali-
tion is real.
Real? The people need to
believe that they are safe from
insurgent pressures or vio-
lence, and safe from the troops
hoping to secure the area.
Once that occurs, according to
the Krepinevich theory, securi-
ty and success can spread into
adjoining areas like a spread-
ing spot of oil on the map. The
security must be real, and the
help in rebuilding lives, cul-
ture, and a healthy economy
must be real. Above all, the
people in the given community
must trust (by experience) that
their experimental support for
the counter-insurgent regime
will not be followed by aban-
donment. In short, their per-
sonal agenda must match the
agenda they experience from
us, the U.S. or the Coalition or
ISAF or NATO.
The agenda they experi-
ence will be the one that tells,
not the agenda we claim. If
real help is leading to real
improvement in safety, diet,
health care and education, the
people will know. The result
will be the old measure of suc-
cess, once maligned. We will
win their hearts and minds.
Krepinevich’s book, “The
Army in Vietnam,” explains
why that “hearts and minds”
goal became so elusive in
Vietnam, and ultimately came
to be ridiculed as a horrible
irony in which massive “daisy
cutter” bombs, napalm, and
Agent Orange defoliation
were visited on the very people
whose hearts and minds were
being wooed. Marine Corp
tactics provided the inspira-
tion for his Oil Spot theory.
The Marines didn’t employ
the massive search and destroy
technique that ultimately left
“swept” areas wide open for
re-infiltration. They deployed
small units that would secure
a particular village. Then they
stayed to build on that secu-
rity with health care support
and other relief programs. But
safety was the key, night and
day.
I’ll try to follow Jake and
Jim’s progress from time to
time, along with Rebecca
Greenbaum and others as the
year goes along. I left them
alone for the holidays, though
I was thrilled to see Jim and
Jake drop by my day job.
They both showed the darndest
thing about Army life. Along
with adding a little ring-bling
and some flashy new body art,
life in the service does one
thing more to a Duxbury kid.
It makes them a foot taller.

Sullivan goal keeps Lady Dragons unbeaten

By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor

After a disappointing tie
(2-2) against Falmouth, the
Duxbury girls’ hockey team
rebounded with a solid effort
on Saturday afternoon at The
Bog to defeat Canton, 1-0,
and keep their unbeaten streak
alive at 4-0-1.

Duxbury 1
Canton
Canton has always been a
power in girls’ hockey, but de-
spite the loss of superstar Brit-
tany Lyons to graduation, the
Bulldogs still gave the Lady
Dragons their toughest game
of the year.
an experienced Bulldog squad,
but to be shorthanded for 4:30
of the first period made it diffi-
cult for Coach Friend Weiler’s
squad to mount any kind of of-
fense.
Duxbury looked like it had
its first serious scoring bid in
the opening minute of the sec-
ond period. However, sopho-
more Molly O’Sullivan was
robbed by Canton goalie Kelly
White as she attempted to fin-
0 ish off a 2-on-1 break.
Just 25 seconds later the
Bulldogs went on their fourth
power-play of the game, only
to have their man advantage
end with 16 seconds remain-

Lady Dragons had to take on

tunity, as sophomore Brianna
Connolly kept charging the
net trying to shovel a shot past
White. Linemate Kaitlin Sulli-
van took advantage of Connol-
ly’s work, poking a rebound
past the Canton netminder for
what proved to be the game
winner.
A Duxbury power-play
with 4:15 to go in the period
almost proved costly, as Can-
ton’s Jackie Rooney broke in
alone on Hannon and couldn’t
put it past the veteran junior.
Rooney’s rush gave a burst
of adrenalin to the rest of the
Bulldog lineup, as Alicia Di-
Cenzo bore in from her left
wing slot but couldn’t find the
back of the net.
The Duxbury defense
played superbly in the final 15
minutes, as they came to the
aid of Hannon on several oc-
casions. But a point blank shot
by Vicky O’Brien at the 9:06
mark and an O’Brien break-
away with 2:29 left in the game
were solely on the shoulders
of Hannon, who came up big
once again.
On Wednesday night the
Lady Dragons will attempt
to keep their unbeaten streak
alive when they travel to Bos-
ton to take on Boston Latin
Academy at 8:15 at Matthews
Arena. The arena is the home
ice of Northeastern University

Dragons catch some lucky breaks

By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor
sports@duxburyclipper.com
After suffering a 3-0 loss
at the hands of undefeated
Pembroke early last week, the
Dragons got back on track Sat-
urday night at The Bog with a
3-1 win over a pesky Norwell
squad.
BOYS’ HOCKEY
Duxbury 3
Norwell
No one would have been
surprised that Norwell was the
Division I team, as the Clip-
pers buzzed the Duxbury end
for most of the first period.
However, for all their effort, it
produced nothing but oppor-
tunities for the Dragons, who
took advantage of every one of
them and led by three goals at
the end of the first 15 minutes.
It took less than three min-
utes for the Clipper’s to make
their first mistake, allowing
sophomore forward Bryan
Barry to pick up a loose puck
at center ice and feed junior
forward Pat Charland com-
ing down the left side. When
Charland crossed the blue line
and reached the top of the left
face-off circle, he unloaded a
slap-shot that whistled past
goalie Clay Ferguson for a 1-0
lead.
Despite the Duxbury score,
the Clippers continued to car-
ry the play in the offensive
end, sending pass after pass
through the crease in front of
goalie Dan Sangster, but never
really testing the junior.
Once again Norwell got
sloppy at center ice, not get-
ting back in time, and allowing
sophomore defenseman Kane
Haffey to spot Charland as he
moved across the blue line.

Charland moved in on Fergu-
son and picked the top corner
for a 2-0 lead on Duxbury’s
second shot of the game.
Norwell had its best chance
of the period at the 5:56 mark,
but Sangster stopped a break-
away, frustrating the Clippers
even more.

Girls’ hoops off to a fast start

Despite some delays and
rescheduling in the early part

the team’s psyche off kilter, as
they stand at 3-1 after Satur-

After splitting hard-fought
games over Hingham (80-71)
and New Bedford (50-58), the
Lady Dragons got a break on
their schedule when they got
back to Patriot League action
with a win over the Lakers.
Despite Duxbury hold-
ing a slim 10-7 lead after the
first quarter, the outcome was
never in doubt, as the Lakers
were over-matched by a taller
and defensive-minded Lady
Dragon squad that continued
to build its lead as the game
progressed.
Senior captains Katie Cur-
ley and cousin Kelly had their
way inside all night long, as
Katie torched Silver Lake for
12 points, while Kelly hit dou-
ble figures with 10.

A 16-7 third quarter put
the game away for the Lady

the solid shooting they needed
to get back in the game.
Maggie Norton also made
some noise underneath, as

contributed six points, while
senior guard Carly Donovan
chipped in with four.
The game was in complete
contrast to the earlier 58-50
loss to Division 1 New Bed-

Duxbury was in the game
the whole night, and rarely
trailed by more than a handful
of points until the final minute

After an incredible run of three straight titles in 2004, 2005,
and 2006, Duxbury still maintained its status as one of the top
high school athletic programs in the state.
Winchester took top honors over Hopkinton HS by winning
70.00 percent of its games, while the runner-up won at a 67.67
clip to edge Old Rochester (67.61). Duxbury (66.50 percent)
and Hingham (63.10 percent) rounded out the top five spots.
Scoring big for the Dragons were: Boys – lacrosse (18-2),
football (9-2), golf (14-3), swimming (9-2), soccer (9-3-5),
cross-country (6-2), baseball (12-8), wrestling (11-7-1), tennis

Genereux and McKenzie win titles

By Wendy Genereux
Clipper Contributor
According to Hall of Fame
Football coaches John Mad-
den and Joe Gibbs there is a
direct correlation, between
football and wrestling. That
was evident last Tuesday night
at the Marshfield Holiday
Tournament where senior cap-
tains Tyler Genereux and Co-
lin McKenzie took down their
opponents, much like they had
done on the gridiron during the
Dragons’ Super Bowl run.
Despite being the #4 seed,
McKenzie received a first-
round bye and proceeded to
pin his next two opponents
in the 140-lb. weight class.
New Bedford’s Jason Fredette
couldn’t make it out of the
first period, and in the quar-
terfinals, North Attleboro’s
Shane Devlin couldn’t make
it past the second period. Ac-
cording to masswrestling.
com, the #6-ranked McKenzie
opened the eyes of the coaches
in charge of seeding when he
upset #1-seed Tom Jones of
Bridgewater-Raynham with
a 6-4 decision. In the finals,
Pembroke’s Pat Claflin didn’t
have a game plan to counter
the speed and workman-like
approach of McKenzie, who
shutout one of Pembroke’s
best, 4-0, to win the champi-
onship.
Genereux faired better,
getting a #2-seed at 171-lb.,
despite having beaten New
Bedford’s Bobby Bulgar (the
#1 seed) at the tournament last
year. After a first-round bye,
Genereux showed why he is
tough to beat on his feet, tak-
ing down Pembroke’s Mark
King numerous times en route
to a 16-6 major decision. It
was much the same for Co-
hasset’s Tom Flibotte, who
spent most of the match on the
mat while falling, 6-1. The #9
ranked Genereux went on the
offensive again in his semi-
final match with Marshfield’s
Tommy Pomella, taking him
to the mat three times before
letting him up for a one-point
escape and a 6-1 decision. It
was much the same in the fi-
nals, with Genereux cruising
to a 7-1 decision over Plym-
outh South’s Blake Nyman to
win another championship for
Duxbury.

came into the game at 12-0
with all sorts glowing compli-
ments from the Boston media,
and by game’s end Duxbury’s
performance may well have
convinced those voting that
the DIIA school was the best
team in Massachusetts.
With an offensive arsenal
that could attack from any spot
on the field, and a smothering
defense that always seemed
to make the big stop at criti-
cal moments in a game, it was
hard to imagine that any team
was better than the Dragons,
who finished at #3 in the final
rankings.

Girls soccer takes state title

T
he Duxbury High
School girls’ soc-
cer team finished
the second half of its regular
season schedule with a 3-5-1
record in its last nine games; a
sign that an early exit in post-
season play was a strong pos-
sibility.
Selected as the #12 seed
in the Division II South Sec-
tional surely wasn’t a vote of
confidence, but it got the Lady
Dragons to the dance so they
could strut their stuff.
Somewhere along the line
Coach Emerson Coleman’s
team got its rhythm, winning
one-goal games over Holliston,
Wellesley, Scituate, Oliver
Ames, and Belmont to earn a
shot in the State championship
game against Wahconah Re-
gional High School of Dalton.
Winning its third overtime
game of the tournament, Dux-
bury won the Division II State
title in November at Wachu-
sett Regional High School in
Holden with a 2-1 OT victory
over the Warriors.
“If you had looked at us
going into this tournament,
I don’t think anyone would
have picked us too win today,”
said Coach Emerson Coleman.
“They over-achieved. I told
them earlier that they were
winners just by getting here
today.”

“Oh no, not again,” said
Quinzani, as he reminisced
about last year’s OT game

Athletic Director Thom

retiring had been in the back

“I wanted to leave the pro-

said Shea. “The kids in that

Dragons basketball stays unbeaten
By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor

Any time Bob Fischer gets
his hands on a high school bas-
ketball program good things
happen. That is why the Drag-
ons had to be somewhat leery
when they traveled to Marsh-
field on Monday night to take
on the Rams.

Marshfield 50
“We made it clear to the
kids before the game that this
wasn’t going to be your nor-
mal game,” said Coach Gor-
don Cushing
Not known as a basketball
power, Marshfield was off to a
4-1 start under their new head
coach prior to taking on unde-
feated Duxbury. As expected,
the hosts gave the Dragons all
they could handle, overcoming
a 10-point deficit in the third
quarter and eventually fading
at the end in Duxbury’s 57-50
win.
It was Duxbury’s seventh
straight win of the season, and
got them ready for Wednesday

feated Whitman-Hanson start-

Senior captains Mark Brust
(29 points) and Sam Davidson
got Duxbury off and running,
as they combined for 11 of
their team’s first 13 points and
a 13-6 lead with 2:47 to go in
the first half that had Fisher
calling for a time out to keep
the game under control.
Brust continued to torch
the Rams over the next five
minutes, as he hit a jumper in
the lane, another from the foul
line, one from the baseline,
and a swish from the top of the
key to build a 22-13 lead.
A steal for a lay-up by ju-
nior Brian Grossman gave the
Cushing’s squad their biggest
lead of the game at 29-17, forc-
ing Fisher once again to storm
up and down the sidelines be-
fore calling another time out.
This time he got the atten-
tion of his team, as they came
out of the break with 2:30 to
go in the half and went on an
11-2 run, thanks to the shoot-
ing of sophomore Barrett Mur-
phy, who buried nine points
in just over a minute to send
his team into the locker room

the Rams closed the gap to 42-
41 in the opening minute of
the fourth quarter.
Both teams surged with
Brust and Grossman giving
the Dragons a 46-41 lead,
but the Rams countered on
baskets by Phil Whitaker and
Tom Fitzgerald to make it 46-
45 with 5:07 remaining.
Marshfield had a chance to
go ahead, but a lost possession
and missed free throws were
their best chances to take the
lead.
Free throws by Ian Whit-
ney and Mike Sullivan were
critical down the stretch, as
was a Brust basket off a loose
ball that gave Duxbury a 51-
47 lead with 2:18 to go.
A Sullivan hoop off a base-
line feed from Brust made it
53-48 with 1:19 left, and a pair
of free throws by Brust with
30 seconds remaining iced the
game for the Dragons.

half. But overall it was a good
