A 1K Anniversary
This week in history…In a January 11, 2019 home game against Spaulding High of Rochester, Lindsey Carey (#30) became the newest member of Conval High’s 1,000 career point club.
Her coach and current Athletic Director, Kevin Proctor, calls Lindsey “the greatest CV player in over 20 years” and part of the best Conval girls’ basketball team since the mid 1990s.
Against Laconia in the first round of the state tournament, Kevin recalls: “We had a 10-point lead going into the fourth quarter, two starters fouled out, and Lindsey had rolled her ankle. I yelled at my assistant coach to go find Lindsey, who was being evaluated by the home team’s trainer. She hobbled into the game with little time left —we lost by one with Lindsey missing the game-winning ‘three’ at the horn. It was a heartbreaking loss but one I’ll never forget.”
But Lindsey’s story was not over. After finishing her career at Conval with 1,206 points, she is now a senior at Western New England College where she is the team’s leading scorer… Go, Lindsey!
