One, hope that the Red Hornets’ freshmen — seven of them, each seeing significant ice time — get rattled by the environment. Or two, stay glued to Taylor Landry at every turn and force somebody else to beat you. Neither approach stayed on the rails Saturday afternoon at Norway Savings Bank Arena. Six different players […]

Boys’ Basketball: Devils zone out Eddies
AUBURN — Zone defenses have been causing Edward Little some sleepless nights this season. But what Lewiston showed the Red Eddies in Friday night’s season finale gave them nightmares. The Devils’ length, athleticism and determination was too much for the Eddies, as was a 14-point third quarter deficit that EL nearly erased. Lewiston shut down […]
Girls’ Basketball: Harriman, Eddies go off on Devils
AUBURN — Any time Edward Little and Lewiston meet on a basketball court, the basket seems to get bigger for Tianna Harriman and Kory Norcross. After scoring a game-high 21 points in EL’s 64-29 win over the Blue Devils on Jan. 11, Harriman lit them up again in Friday’s season finale, this time for 27 […]
Boys’ hockey: Eddies hold off Rams
AUBURN — Each Cony action in the offensive zone was met with an equal and opposite action from Edward Little on Thursday. Or two.

Girls’ Hockey: Nadeau brings experience, enforcement to Red Hornets’ defense
AUBURN — On the Leavitt/Edward Little girls’ hockey roster, five players are listed on defense, plus two goalies. Of the seven, five are freshmen. It’s an arrangement that traditionally screams “building year,” and typically would keep a coach sweating bullets even inside the coldest rinks in the state. Not the Red Hornets, though, and not […]
KVAC Wrestling Championships: Hankey, Geiger, Skowhegan come out on top
TOPSHAM — Malik Geiger likes to be the last man standing in his weight class, but not necessarily on the mat. “Usually I’m not very dominant on my feet, but occasionally I get a good match or two,” said Geiger, an Oxford Hills junior. Geiger stayed on his feet for the most part and dominated […]
Boys’ Basketball: Defense dominates as Eddies win ugly
AUBURN — Edward Little couldn’t gripe too much after Friday’s 44-30 KVAC boys’ basketball victory over Mt. Blue. The Red Eddies set specific team goals prior to every game, and EL (10-6) met every one of them on its annual Pack the Gym Night. Shoot more free throws than the Cougars? Done, although trips to […]
Girls’ Basketball: Red Eddies cruise past Cougars
AUBURN — Edward Little still isn’t completely satisfied with its team defense. The Red Eddies will need more stops and fewer foul difficulties to achieve their goal of an Eastern Class A girls’ basketball championship.
