Middies Rumors And Rebounding Shortfall Highlight Up Next Games
Middletown Middies coach Paul Walker cited poor rebounding as a key factor in a 65 60 loss to Hamilton Taft last Friday. The team averaged 46 boards per game but pulled down only 30 against Taft, contributing to a low scoring night. Jeff Gann may see action despite an injured ankle, with Ron Price and Ed Gibbons likely teaming if needed.
