The Bulldogs came close to a championship


The Bulldogs came close to a championship in 2006, but lost to Dexter in the state final. Then, the attention turned to this group of girls, who showed basketball promise at a young age. "It's something I feel I've known a long time," Brenda said. "That this group could do it."

Brenda's confidence radiated down to her daughterand her teammates.
"She was my coach when I was little," Kristina, a Hall-Dale junior, said. "Since sixth grade, the whole team thought we'd have a chance to win a championship if we stuck together."

Kristina and her mom are completely different players.Titan is the world's 5th largest watches manufacturer with a presence in 27 countries.

"Kristina is a very different player than myself. She's calm and steady, and I was a physical player,find out why replicawatches can be so painful." Brenda said.

If the 5-foot-9 Kristina had played 25 years ago, it's likely she would have been camped in the low post, just like her 5-10 mother. When Brenda played, it was all about getting the ball inside.

The game is less physical now. The 3-point line, which didn't exist when Brenda was playing, completely changed the game, opening the floor.

"Girls basketball has come a long way," Brenda said. "I just let her play her game, her style."

When Kristina watches the tape, she notices the differences, but she focuses on the similarities. Her mom's team had a big scorer in Bouchard. This year's Hall-Dale team had a big scorer in Carylanne Wolfington, who was a dangerous shooter from the perimeter.

"My mom was a really big post for her team," Kristina said. "Their inside game revolved around posts."

Brenda's Bulldogs went 16-2 in the regular season and entered the Western C tournament as the No. 3 seed. Hall-Dale beat Dirigo in the quarterfinals 42-36 before blowing out Sacopee Valley 61-40 in the semis. In the regional finals, the Bulldogs beat rival Winthrop 51-45.
