ATHLETICS THIS WEEK
FRESHMAN GIRLS BASKETBALL
Our freshman girls lost a high-intensity battle Tuesday night to TimberCreek with a final score of 30 - 33.
The game was back and forth all night with several lead changes and explosive offensive positions, but the clock wasn't our friend at the end and we just didn't have time to catch up. Lisa Kerich and Jaylin Wilson each produced 10 points a piece for us offensively, with Zoey Herring, Adraiya Hill, and Addyson Williams also chipping in with a few buckets a piece and owning the defensive rebounds.
The ladies will look to bounce back Friday night as we take on Harwood here at BJH, starting at 4:30. We'd love to see the stands packed for this rivalry game!
8TH GRADE GIRLS BASKETBALL
The B team played a great offensive game, passing the ball, and finding the open teammate! The girls put on the full court pressure to try and catch up, but fell short in the end. Landry Medialdea led the team with 8 points, followed by Danika Lambert with 3. Defensive players of the game were Crista Lopez, Haley Bedlington, and Adeline Attaguile. The girls look to come out with the W next Thursday against Colleyville Middle School.
The A team played a hard-fought and scrappy game last night. The girls led the game from the beginning with full court pressure. Chairman of the boards last night were Mia Easter-Clark Talia Soliai-Tui, Hailer Blocker-Smith, and Reagan Ingram. Huge defensive stops made by Jazz Williams, Kenslee Turner, Mia Williams, Tia Iafeta, MuRae Horn, and Madeline Dean. The girls look to continue their undefeated season next week! Great job Lady Broncos!
7TH GRADE GIRLS BASKETBALL
8TH GRADE BOYS BASKETBALL
