Page 16 THE SAUGUS ADVOCATE – Friday, February 7, 2020 Saugus boys pull off win over Rams By Greg Phipps W inning two straight Northeastern Conference games coming into last Friday’s game against the Lynn Classical Rams seemed to set the stage for the Saugus High School boys’ basketball team, as the Sachems pulled off an exciting 72-65 league win over the Rams last Friday night at John Towers Gymnasium. It was the third straight conference victory for the Sachems, who saw that streak come to an end on Tuesday against Lynn English. But last Friday’s affair was one of the more memorable victories for the Saugus boys in recent years. Trailing by as many as 12 points in the third quarter, the Sachems battled back with some clutch shooting from the field by Christian Correia, Myles Manalaysay and Joe Lusso, as well as some solid work from the foul line to draw even at 60 apiece in the fourth. From there, the Sachems would outscore the visitors 12-5 and come away with a huge win. Four Saugus players finished in double figures. Correia was at the head of the list with 20 points, followed by Manalaysay with 17, Lusso with 14 and Mason Nickolas with 13. Head coach Mark Bertrand was understandably pleased when it ended. “This is my third year as head coach, and this is probably the biggest win in that time at Saugus,” he told the press afterward. “[The Rams] have a great staff...and I give them credit; they came right WIN OVER RAMS | SEE PAGE 18 S augus guard Myles Manalaysay poured in 17 points in last Friday’s huge win over Lynn Classical.
