Results from 7th Grade Girls Basketball
Yesterday,
the Lady Lions traveled to Southmore Intermediate to take on the
Bulldogs. The dark team took the court first and took an early lead only
to see Southmore come back and tie it up. Neither team was able to get
it going offensively as both teams played tough defense throughout the
game. A game tying last second three barely missed going in the basket,
and the Lions fell in a closely contested contest 8-11.
The light team was
ready for the Bulldogs, but after a slow first quarter, the Lions only
led by 2 points. During the second, the Lions turned on the pressure and
raised their intensity to increase their lead to double digits. By the
end of the third quarter, the Lady Lions had blown the game wide open. A
furious rally by Southmore cut the lead to nine points, but it was too
much of an uphill climb, as the Lions clamped down and took back control
of the game winning 51-34.
Next week, the
Lions will play their last road game of the season against the Bondy
Patriots. Go Lions!
