THORNDIKE — As they prepare for the 2022-23 high school basketball season, the Mount View girls, under the guidance of first-year coach Brandon Hurd, have shown they will play hard one end of the court to the other and give their best effort for 32 minutes — unless, of course, they need to give more in overtime.

That prep continued on Thursday night, Dec. 1 as the home-standing Mustangs grabbed the first-half momentum, through its defensive intensity, en route to a 35-21 win over the Bucksport Golden Bucks.
