EASTHAMPTON, Mass. -- Despite 38 points from Izzy LaCasse, the McCann Tech girls basketball team Friday dropped a 65-56 decision at Easthampton that was closer than the final score indicated.
 
"Tonight was a very good game," McCann Tech coach Kathy Budaj said. "First half, the lead was traded back and forth. Right before half they went up by three. They came out strong and went up by 12 on a 9-0 run.
 
"After the timeout, we kept battling back to within three to five points, but could never get the lead back. Izzy had an amazing game on both sides of the court."
 
LaCasse finished with 13 field goals and shot 12-for-14 at the foul line.
 
Addie Hayer scored six poits, and Hannah Boisvert and Camryn Marsh each scored four.
 
"Hannah did a fantastic job on defense," Budaj said. "Many offensive and defensive rebounds as well as blocks and caused turnovers. The whole team played hard, but I think their depth on their bench helped them down the stretch."
 
McCann Tech (0-2) hosts Mount Everett on Tuesday.
