Onekama loses to Walkerville in hard fought battle

      The Onekama Portagers played tough in Monday night’s match up against the Walkerville Wildcats.  It was a great 1st game of 2008.  The team played together with a lot of heart, pride, and aggressiveness allowing for many strides to be made toward team and individuals goals.  Unfortunately, throughout the close game the Wildcats were able to get more shots to fall thus allowing them to capture the win 54-43.  Leading the offensive charge were Kelsey Acker, Kieran O’Connor, and Paige Rutowski combining for 31 points.

      Paige, Chelsea and Carmen hauled down some great rebounds combining for 18.  While Alyssa and Olivia lead the defensive wall with Alyssa having 4 steals.   
      The Portagers are next in action at home on Thursday, January 10, against Bear Lake.  Future Stars will be joining in at the halftime of jv/varsity games. 
      Saturday, Jan 12th the Portagers welcome back the 1997 Girl’ Basketball Semi Finalist Team.  Games start at 12 noon!
