Freshman Brielle Nicholls scored eight and sophomore Tessah Rodrigues added seven, as the Panthers sliced the deficit in half. OA clamped down again on defense, holding Franklin to just three points in the fourth, to seal the victory. Gamble hit three from beyond the arc and had a game-high 23 points. Horsman chipped in with 13 and freshman Ashlyn Hrenko scored six in her varsity debut. Nicholls led the Panthers for the second game in a row, finishing with 14 points. Rodrigues added a dozen.

Boys Basketball = Franklin, 39 @ Oliver Ames, 54 – Final
"For most of the past two seasons, taking a three wasn’t high on Jacob Lok’s list of offensive options.

The senior point guard has built his reputation as a pass-first floor general, but with Oliver Ames needing new scoring options after heavy graduation losses, Lok committed to expanding his game — and it paid off Tuesday night.

Lok hit four triples in the third quarter and scored 15 of his career-high 18 points in the frame, powering Oliver Ames to a 54-39 win over Franklin, snapping the Panthers’ 39-game Hock win streak that dated back to January of 2023. It also marked OA’s first win over Franklin since 2014."
