MIDDLEBURY — This winter the Middlebury Union High School girls’ basketball team has struggled to score, and Tuesday’s first half against visiting Mount Abraham looked like more of the same — the Tigers trailed at the half, 20-11.

Then their shots started to fall. And those launched by the Eagles did not: Mount Abe managed only five free throws between 2:00 of the second quarter and 5:45 of the fourth.
