Paulson scores 32, but Freeman falls WATERTOWN — Trailing by one with 11 seconds remaining in a first-round game at the state Class B tournament, the Freeman girls’ basketball team was sitting on its bench during a timeout.

The Flyers had to foul to stop the clock and did just that, putting senior Allison McEldowney on the line.
