JV Boys Basketball
Junior varsity started their season off with a home game against the Walter Johnson Wildcats on Tuesday. The game ended in a 74-42 loss.
Come out tonight at 5:30 for the doubleheader against the Gaithersburg High School Trojans at home.
“We’re about to show them what JV Watkins Mill basketball does when we have a full team,” Hassan Nazir said.
Varsity Boys Basketball
Varsity also started the year off with an unfortunate loss against the Wildcats 56-44. An ankle-breaker to 3-pointer combo for senior Devin Breckenridge wasn’t enough for the ‘Rines to get the win in their first game in almost two years.
The second home game of the season tips off tonight against the Trojans at 7:15 at the Den. Make sure to come out and cheer our ‘Rines to a win.
“[Today’s game] just comes down to execution. There’s no doubt we play hard and fast but we have to knock down free throws, hit open shots, [and] make the right basketball play,” Breckenridge said.
Varsity Girls Basketball
Varsity started with a 49-7 loss against the Wildcats.
“We talked as a team, went through things to do better for tonight’s game, and let’s hope we can bring home a win,” freshman Sharick Mejias said.
