The girls will host Kingsley on Valentine's Day, travel to Buckley on Friday, and host Mesick on Monday. JV tips off at 5:30 PM with varsity to follow.
Coach Bennett's full recap of the Friday win versus Benzie is below:
"We trailed 24-18 at halftime but pulled ahead in the third quarter, outscoring Benzie 16-6. Heather and Callie had some nice shots and combined for all 16 points in that quarter. Ava and Callie hit some huge free throws in the fourth quarter to solidify our lead and the win. It was nice to avenge our loss to the Huskies earlier in the season."
It was our third game in five days and our third win! It’s telling that my team has grown on the court and are exhibiting such wonderful team chemistry as we go into the final weeks of our season. Our record overall is 10-5 and we are 7-4 in the conference waiting. We hope to keep the momentum rolling
