Coming into their battle against visiting Sandwich Friday night, Marshfield was one of the hottest teams in Massachusetts, having won eight straight contests.

But Sandwich jumped out to an early lead and looked like it would cool Marshfield down. The Blue Knights led by 15 points with just four minutes left in the third when the Rams came alive to win 85-78.

Barrett Murphy and Nick DaPrato led the charge back, and each player finished with 24 points. The Rams are now 11-2.
