PAWTUCKET – Shea High entered the Donaldson Memorial Tournament hoping to build off the momentum of its impressive victory over Barrington earlier in the week.
Instead, the Raiders back to their campus with a disappointing fourth place showing after getting roasted by Tiverton High, 67-39, in the consolation game held at Tolman High School.
Afterwards Shea head coach Greg Barker had a hard time finding anything positive to take out of his team’s performance. “We didn’t play defense or run anything offensively,” Barker stated. “It’s embarrassing. It’s no excuse to say that it’s only been a few games.”
No one reached double figures for Shea as Austin Silva and Rudy Brito were the high men with nine points apiece. Kelvin Walker and Teshaw Robinson each managed seven points.
