Windham used the fourth quarter to spread some minutes and scoring around. Brandon Hodge hit a three-pointer, Dylan Taylor scored a basket and Kyle Williams scored off a pass from Hodge and a free throw to cap the scoring. Jackson Taylor and Nolan Allen also scored two points each in the final quaerter.

Drew Gagnon excited the home crowd by attempting a dunk but it didn't go in and he was called for a technical for hanging on the rim.

Windham hosts Gorham at 8PM on Tuesday February 2, 2010. The girls varsity play at 6:30PM in the senior night double header. The games are the last home games for the class of 2010.

The night is also part of a fundraiser for All State quarterback Jackson Taylor's family. Jackson's dad Keith has ALS and it has created a financial hardship for the family. One of the fundraisers has been the sale of t-shirts that say "Open Season on ALS" on the front and "Eagles Unite to join the fight" on the back. Come out and support the teams, seniors and the Taylor family. Don't forget to wear your "Open Season on ALS" t-shirt!
