By Joe McConnell T he Everett High School boys’ basketball team (73) bounced back quite nicely after two straight close losses to Cambridge (58-53) and Revere (44-41) to defeat Medford (75-61) and Malden (54-40) by thoroughly convincing scores. First-year head coach Gerard Boyce was quite happy with the energy level in both games last week after those heartbreaking defeats from the previous week that followed the Christmas break. “The game against Medford was our first game back after the disappointing loss to Revere,” he said. “We bounced back with energy after some good practices. Hopefully, we can sustain that solid play.” BASKETBALL | SEE PAGE 15 #13 Lian Dorosario Santos shoots a three. #3 Tyson Chhun gets an open layup on the fast break. #11 Allsin Desruisseaux takes contact while going up for a layup. #11 Allsin Desruisseaux on the fast break. #1 Jaysaun Coggins goes up for a layup between Malden’s Colin Okoth and Zeke Noelsaint against Malden.
