Leary mentions the importance of their defensive game in giving them a chance in close games. “We really lean on our defense,” Leary said. “And, you know, we were able to bring Everett down to maybe like 15 points below their average. We gave ourselves a chance. And then our guys made big shots down the stretch, which, in other games that we’ve lost by one or two possessions, that was the difference. We just didn’t make shots late. We missed free throws late. But it seems like other than the game at English, on some level, every game has been one or two possessions, one or two loose balls, one or two rebounds. So, the Everett game was really a good confi - dence boost for our guys.” Leary stresses the need for continuous hard work and improvement, especially in reducing turnovers. That was a killer in some games, but the Patriots’ turnover numbers have been down lately. Junior point guard Avi Lung has been showing growth in confi dence and control, alongside other contributors like junior wing Josh Mercado and junior Ethan Day. Leary notes Day’s consistency in scoring and his ability to draw fouls. In a 6247 loss to Chelsea on Jan. 23, Day dropped 27 points in the loss for the Patriots. “He’s been pretty consistent ©2024 BHH Ailiates, LLC.

He’s pretty smooth going to his left, going to his right, fl oaters in the lane, reverse layups, things like that. And he gets himself to the foul line multiple times a game.” org/about-our-upcoming-season/ or Miter Biter (479 Main St., Melrose) or call 617-633-5006.

Ellis scored 11 points against Malden, and Yemani, a senior with only one year of varsity experience, has been gaining confi - dence and scored 10 points in a recent game against Medford. Leary also mentioned that the team has adopted a more up-tempo style, focusing on extending their defense and pressing more aggressively. This approach aims to create more scoring opportunities by pushing the pace against the opposing team. He expressed optimism that this strategy would help other players find their rhythm and contribute more off ensively. Furthermore, the team’s cocaptain Andrew Leone, who initially averaged around 8-10 points in the fi rst few games, has returned from a foot injury. Having played for about 15 minutes in a recent game against Medford, Leone is expected to regain his form and make significant contributions in the second half of the season. The Greater Boston League is competitive with no easy games, Leary said. He emphasizes the geographical proximity of teams and the familiarity among players, raising the stakes of league games: “If you’re not on your best, you’re gonna get beat,” he said. The team is facing an uphill battle getting into the postseason. However, Leary remains optimistic about their chances to improve and possibly secure a tournament spot. Revere as of the Tuesday, Jan. 23 postseason rankings is ranked 57th out of 61 teams. It can get into the postseason if it fi nishes.500 or above or in the top 32 in the fi nal rankings.
