Hamer and Enders Named Basketball MVP

Belfast Varsity Basketball Senior MacKenzie Hamer recently received the MVP award for Allegany County Division Two. Hamer is the first varsity girls basketball player to receive this award since 1982. The last time a player from Belfast received this award was in 1982, when Lisa Hayes received the award. Before that it was Mary Kay Hayes who won it in 1979. Lisa also is the only varsity girls basketball player to score 1,000 career points. Debate continues to this day about that due to the fact that record keepers are not sure of exactly how many points she finished with. Hamer was also selected to play in the exceptional senior game this past month.  She finished fifth on the Allegany County Top 10 scorers for basketball, ending her senior season averaging 14.3 points per game.

Adam Enders also received MVP for Allegany County Division Two as a sophomore.  His team advanced to the quarterfinals this year before losing a close one to Andover.  Adam made history in his 24 point effort at Houghton on January 13, making his way onto the 1,000 point list. He followed that up with a 33 point performance in the Barkley Showcase at Alfred University in a 62-37 win. Adam also broke the school record for three pointers in a season with 61.  He finished the year on top of the Top 10 scoring list in Allegany County, averaging 21.7 points per game.    BCS is proud to win both MVPs this year.  Practice makes perfect. Congratulations to both of these players for their hard work on the court!
