The month of January has been nothing but league games. Tuesday night a league foe, rinse and spit, another league foe Friday night. Tuesday night a league foe, rinse and spit … you get the idea. For the past three and a half weeks. But on Thursday night, Watertown got the chance to face a non-league foe, in advance of the D3 Tournament, and see where they stand. Watertown entered the game 8-4 on the season, while Milford sat at 6-7. What started out as a back and forth contest, turned into a one-sided affair as the Raiders could never put together a stretch of consistent basketball, as they fell to Milford by the score of 60-43.

The other day I mentioned the many cliches that sports forces us to say or hear and conjure up in describing the action or analyzing the game. Here’s another — “on paper” — as in, on paper these two teams seem pretty evenly matched. Paper has a way of deceiving at times, so one should never rely on paper to determine the outcome of a game. What we did know entering yesterday’s game was that on paper Watertown/Wayland and Lexington were both in need of a win. Watertown/Wayland was 1-12 and Lexington 3-11.
