Tipping off for the 3rd time this season, the Portagers
knew they would have to play hard, with a lot of heart and pride for
4 quarters in order to end the season successfully, and that is
exactly what they did against a very tall and good Manistee Catholic
Sabers team. Despite getting down early in the 1st
quarter, the team rallied in the second to be down 19-34 at the
half. The season dooming 3rd quarter allowed the Sabers
to take complete control of the game and never look back.

The Portagers, however, didn’t back down, continuing to hustle, execute
a brand new defense, and take some risks in their 25-60 loss.
The team
believed it and wanted it when other teams might have backed down at the
challenge. Being in District Final is a great accomplishment, allowing
for a great finish to a fun and memorable season. Congratulations on
the 2007-08 season ladies!
