Onekama vs. Big Rapids Crossroads Charter Academy – Game 2
The JV Lady Portagers came in to their second game of the
season hosting the Cougars of Big Rapids Crossroads Charter Academy.
The Portagers were fired up and feeling a little hungry while they
search for their first win of the season.
Things started out crazy with the fire alarms sounding
shortly after tip-off and a short evacuation of the building. After
returning to play the Portagers struggled offensively and were unable to
close gaps on defense which led to some easy Cougar baskets. Turnovers,
rebounds, and shooting would be key components to the disposition of
this contest as the Portagers lost another hard fought contest with a
score of 19-39.
In her first game of the season, Sami led the team in
scoring with 6 points. Sierra Hull and Nisha followed with 5 and 4
points respectively. Faith and Elizabeth closed out the scoring with 2
points each. |
On the defensive end, Kaylan and Sierra Hull controlled
the boards with 10 rebounds each and Kaylan added a blocked shot. Sami
added another 8 rebounds and Elizabeth finished with 6 rebounds, a
blocked shot and a team leading 5 steals. Sierra Warner and Faith
chipped in another 4 rebounds and Faith finished with 3 steals. Nisha
finished with 1 rebound and 2 steals while Kaitlin finished with a
rebound, steal, assist and a block.
The JV team is working hard every day and improving.
They have a positive attitude and a good “team-first” mentality. They
improve each day and their hard work will pay off with a win soon.
The Lady Portagers will travel with the Varsity to
Walkerville on Friday, December 10, 2010, as Walkerville doesn’t have a
JV team. We will return home to host Mesick on Monday, December 13th
for a non-conference game.
Go Portagers!
