Warriors' ugly win still pretty
By DAN KAUFFMAN / Staff Writer
BOONSBORO - Boonsboro boys basketball coach Chuck Ingram just wants to win. How they do it is nothing more than a minor detail.
The Warriors had 18 fewer field goal attempts and committed six more turnovers than Brunswick on Tuesday night. But Boonsboro took advantage of 26 Railroaders fouls and made 25 of 34 foul shots, pulling away early in the fourth quarter and holding on late for a less than spectacular 55-50 win in the Monocacy Valley Athletic League.
"We'll win ugly, we don't mind," Ingram said. "After struggling here for a while, we'll win ugly and that's all right."
Brunswick's offensive night was half-full or half-empty, depending on the point of view. The Railroaders were as balanced as a team can be, as all 11 players scored and three shared the team lead - with just seven points. Brunswick (6-7, 5-5) shot just 36 percent from the field (18 of 50) and 48 percent from the line (12 of 25).
