It's Attleboro vs. Mansfield on Friday.


Bryant Ciccio hit two free throws with 3.2 seconds left in the game and Nick McMahon's pass deflection after the inbound pass sealed the deal as the Attleboro High School boys' basketball team edged Brookline, 50-49, in the opening round of the MIAA Division 1-South playoffs.

The Bombardiers, now 17-6, will visit top-seeded Mansfield on Friday (6:30 p.m. start) for the third meeting of the teams this year. Mansfield has won both so far, 71-62 at Mansfield on Dec. 29 and 77-65 at AHS on Jan. 31.

Qualeem Charles had 16 points and Ciccio 14 against the Warriors on Tuesday night. Ciccio, by the way, had his career-high of 32 points in the first game against Mansfield this season.
