Game 1

Samantha came out with her "A-Game" today, scoring the first basket of the season, giving her team a 2-0 lead that held up for nearly the entire first quarter. Unfortunately, neither her or her teammates were able to find the bottom of the net again throughout the first half, and the Lady Bronchos trailed at halftime 12-2. Things got ugly in the third quarter, as the Fenton girls pulled away to a 28-2 lead. The Bronchos didn't give up, however, and made a mini-run in the fourth quarter. Sam wound up adding 4 more points to her daily total, and a couple other girls managed to score as well. They also managed to hold Fenton to 2 points in the fourth, making the final score a somewhat more respectable 30-10.

Although the girls lost, I have to give them a ton of credit. While they only have 8 girls on their team, the Fenton team brought 21 players with them. That meant that they were able to roll in fresh teams of 5 every couple of minutes, which was extremely beneficial today. With outside temperatures soaring to 90+ degrees, the inside temperature of the gym was almost the same. The Holly girls were completely wore out by the time this game was over. Hopefully by the time they place their next game at home it will be a bit cooler inside. Go Bronchos!
