WILLIAMSTOWN -- After a 21-point first quarter, the Mount Greylock boys’ basketball team made quick work of visiting New Lebanon on Thursday night, 65-26.
The Mounties had only one player -- Nathan Majumder -- reach double digits, but they had nine players with a basket.
"It’s the second night where we’ve had some really nice balanced scoring and we’ve played all 13 guys, which was good," coach Bob Thistle said.
Greylock held New Lebanon to six, five and five points in each of the first three quarter, respectively.
In the early going, the Mounties utilized their pressure defense to fuel their 15-point lead after 8 minutes.
"That caused them to get of their game plan and we turned that into a lot of transition baskets," Thistle said.
