WESTFIELD – Westfield came out on the short end of a defensive battle, losing its first league game of the season. The Bombers fell at home to East Longmeadow in a game lacking firepower, 29-27, Friday night.
“It was ugly, a defensive struggle,” Westfield coach Ralph Loos said. “It took basketball back to the stone age.”
Karly Mastello led Westfield with eight points. Alicia Arnold had six.
“It was a tough loss, but something we have to bounce back from,” coach Loos said.
Westfield returns to action Tuesday at Ludlow at 7 p.m.
