Brunswick’s Sabrina Armstrong chases after a Lewiston ball-handler during the Dragons’ 39-38 road win last week.

It certainly feels a lot like winter and the winter sports season has passed the midway pole, believe it or not.

Action continued in all sports last week and here’s a look at how local squads fared:

Boys’ basketball
