Belmont High Winter All-Scholastic All-Stars

Boston Globe honors Belmont's best winter athletes.

If there was an engine that ran the Belmont High School Girls' Basketball, it was a two-cylinder model made up of seniors Katie Leinbach and Olivia Lyons. The pair led the Marauders in scoring and rebounding in each game of the regular and post season, a year which saw Belmont return to the post season for the first time since 2008. 

While Lyons was Miss Inside scoring and rebounding under the hoop, Leinback directed the team from the guards position; driving the lane or hitting the three.

The two brought the Maruaders to the Division 2 North semifinals with Leinback scoring more than 20 points a game while Lyons played despite being injuried.
