Celtics defeat Vikings (Example of Print Plus)

The East Bridgewater Vikings demolished the Boston Celtics last night 100-60 at the TD Banknorth Garden.
Ned Hannigan scored a game-high 36 points for the Celtics on 12-25 shooting. Also, point guard Martin Nugent dished out 7 assists, while scoring 15 points.
The Vikings improve to 12-0 on the year. At this pace, the Vikings should earn a top seed in the state tournament.
Both teams resume play next Wednesday. East Bridgewater takes on Mashpee at home. The Celtics fly to New York to take on the Knickerboxers.
