The Old Rochester Regional girls basketball team suffered a hard-fought loss toDartmouth High School on Jan. 5.

But Coach Bob Hohne responded positively. "We have a young team, and we’re getting much better,” he said.

The Lady Bulldogs lost 61-34, but were within five points at the end of the first quarter. It was after the first quarter that Dartmouth’s offense caught fire.

Every member of the ORR varsity team took to the court at some point and contributed.  Kaleigh Goulart, playing in her first game of the season, was the leading scorer with 10 points. Isabelle Riley, with 8 points, was the second highest scorer.

The Lady Bulldogs will travel to Dighton-Rehoboth on Tuesday, Jan. 7, for a 6:30 tip-off.
