Manistee News Advocate staff report
ONEKAMA — Onekama suffered from being
short-handed Friday night and lost, 59-36, to Mason County Eastern.
“We played pretty hard, but we were pretty
short-handed,” said Portagers’ coach Nathan Bradford. “We have a lot of
girls sick, so we only played with seven tonight.”
Due to foul trouble, seven players
eventually turned to only four before the game ended. |
Chelsea Miller led the Portagers with 17
points and 12 rebounds. Also for
Onekama, Paige Rutowski had 10 points and seven rebounds, Stacey Keith
scored three points and grabbed six rebounds, while Diamond Kimpel added
three points and five rebounds.
“We played pretty hard in the first half,”
Bradford said. “We got tired in the second half and had too many
turnovers.”
The Portagers were down by single digits
after the first (14-10) and second quarter (26-19), but they were unable
to keep up with the Cardinals in the second half. |
