Duxbury qualifies for tourney again
Fresh off a 70-52 win against Patriot league rival Pembroke, the Duxbury Green Dragons qualified once again for the tournament.
To say head coach Gordon Cushing has been a success at the helm for Duxbury, would be a major understatement — and maybe even an insult.
In his 12-year tenure, Cushing has coached his team to 11 consecutive division tournaments, including a Division 2 state championship in 2006. The one and only time Cushing failed to lead the Green Dragons to the playoffs was in his first year on the job.
