Saugus boys’ hoops team drops two of three

The Saugus High School boys’ basketball team picked up a win over Saugus Pioneer Charter School Of Science 2, 59-29, between two Northeastern Conference losses. Leading scorers for the Sachems were Danny Shea with 16 points and Cam Victor with 14 points.

“We also had everyone score,” Saugus coach Joe Bertrand said.

The Sachems fell, 68-48, at Marblehead.

“We competed, and if we keep that up the wins and losses will happen as they may,” Bertrand said. “Great shooting performance out of Danny Shea.”

Shea led the team with 13 points, and Victor added nine points. Huey Josama (seven points), Isaiah Rodriguez (five points) and Ryan Shea (five points) got buckets for the Sachems.

Saugus fell to Gloucester, 51-44.

“A well-played game by both teams,” Bertrand said. “We just didn’t come out on top. Back at it Thursday at home vs Masco.”

Rodriguez and Danny Shea each added 11 points, and Ryan Shea tossed in nine while Victor added seven.

Saugus-Peabody wrestling red-hot

Saugus-Peabody wrestling beat Waltham, 59-18, and improved to 8-2. First-year wrestler Landon Rodriguez of Peabody cracked the varsity lineup again and earned his second win of the season at 132 pounds.

Still undefeated in dual meets:

• Max Lorusso, 138, Saugus
• Sam Lorusso, 157, Saugus
• Mike Maraio, 144, Peabody
• Justin Bremberg, 150, Saugus
• Luke Calder, 165, Saugus

“Waltham is rebuilding this year and has a couple holes in the lineup,” Saugus-Peabody coach Wayne Moda said. “Overall, it was another good performance by the whole team. We are improving for sure. Still plenty of work to do, but that is what it is all about.”

Saugus-Peabody also beat Wayland, 54-24. Anna Felicio of Saugus started us off by pinning her opponent in the first period. Jackson Deleidi, of Peabody, won a major decision at 113. Down 12-10 coming into the 132-weight class, Saugus-Peabody swept through the 175-pound weight class and then finished off by pinning at heavyweight. The Lorussos, Maraio, Bremberg and Calder all had wins.

“Wayland is a young team with a few experienced wrestlers,” Moda said. “I was happy with the intensity we brought to the mat. We wrestled well and demonstrated that we are becoming technical as well.”

Tybinkowski shines in loss

Peabody-Saugus boys hockey lost a Northeastern Conference game to Danvers, 6-0. Sophomore goalie Evan Tybinkowski, of Peabody, likely impressed pretty much everyone in the rink with his 55-save performance.

“Highlights were Evan Tybinkowski, who had 55 saves in net,” Peabody-Saugus coach Jason Marshall said. “And Brandon Berone [Peabody sophomore] and Andrew Pinto [Peabody junior] had their strongest games of the season creating good offensive chances.”
