Your 2015 Prospect Hill Academy Lady Wizards.

The MCSAO Championship Tournament took place this past weekend on the University of Massachusetts, Boston Harbor Campus with the quarter-finals match-ups on Friday night, the semi-finals on Saturday and the championship match on Sunday morning. Three-time defending MCSAO Champion, KIPP Academy, advanced to this year’s championship game with convincing early round wins over Foxborough Regional (59-41) and Boston Collegiate (60-25).

The Prospect Hill Academy Lady Wizards, North regular season co-champion with KIPP, also gained a spot in the finals.
Prospect Hill opened tournament play with a 45-40 win over the South League’s Academy of the Pacific Rim.

On Saturday morning in the first semi-final of the day, the Lady Wizards were matched up against Edward M. Kennedy Health Careers. Prospect Hill was on the winning side of a 46-42 final score and had earned the right to play KIPP Academy in Sunday’s MCSAO Championship Game.

Prospect Hill had six players score in the game, but also had almost 26 turnovers that and 18 missed free throws which resulted in KIPP garnering a fourth consecutive championship and Prospect Hill finishing the season on the losing end of a 51-47 score. At the end of the game the Prospect Hill Academy Lady Wizards collected their second tournament runner-up trophy in two years.
