Warren — It was the girls moment in the court spotlight on Monday, March 29 at the Midcoast Athletics Center and the young area athletes shone brightly, as they took full advantage with strong play, memories made with friends and a champion crowned to boot.
Over the past few months, there were four fifth- and sixth-grade hoop squads who played games at the facility. With life overall — and sports specifically — being fluid due to the pandemic, the season started in January with two teams, but evolved and expanded to four at one point.

Winter play culminated with an end-of-season tournament on March 29 at the facility located on the corners of Route 1/Atlantic Highway and Short Street, as Oceanside emerged the champion over Camden Hills in the night title game.
The seedings for the tourney, created by Richie Oliver of MAC, were: 1, Oceanside; 2, Camden Hills; 3, Medomak Valley “A”; and 4, Medomak Valley “B”.
In the championship game, Oceanside defeated Camden Hills 25-11. Earlier in the tourney, Camden Hills bested Medomak Valley “A” 23-18 and Oceanside raced past Medomak Valley “B” 44-4.
