ADDISON COUNTY — The local high school boys’ basketball season came to an end on Tuesday, when all four area teams came up short in first-round playoff games.
TIGERS
In Division I, three-time defending champion Rice, the No. 2 seed, coasted past No. 15. Middlebury, 68-19. The Green Knights outscored Middlebury by 24-2 in the second quarter and led at the half, 43-6.
Kam Farris scored 20 points to lead the 18-3 Green Knights. No Tiger scored more than four points as MUHS, which had closed the regular season strong with three wins in four outings under first-year coach Kyle Lussier, finished 6-14.
OTTERS
Despite falling behind by 12-3 in its D-II first-round game, No. 15 Otter Valley played the closest game among the local squads, falling to No. 2 Lyndon 60-42.
Luka Grubic led three Vikings in double figures with 16 points as Lyndon improved to 15-6.
Josh Letourneau scored 11 points to lead the Otters as they finished at 4-17, a record that included wins over MUHS and Mount Abe.
EAGLES
D-II top seed U-32 defeated visiting No. 16 Mount Abraham, 67-40. Jackson McCoy led the 18-3 Raiders with 22 points, and U-32 took control with a 20-8 first quarter.
