Last night we traveled to Hillsdale Academy to take on the colts. We came in with a plan to play aggressive defense, stay up, and score. We were able to play aggressive defense and attempt to get steals, but our shots did not fall. We were down in points the entire game (6-10, 12-18, 14-24) and ended the game with a loss of 20-37. We played a more experienced JV team from Hillsdale that we simply could not get around, in our press, in points, and overall. We hoped for a different outcome, but not everyone was giving what they needed to to make that happen. Suzanne St. John scored 12 points. Addison Yanovich scored 6 points. Reagan Keena scored 2 points. Thanks to all who came out and supported us at Hillsdale Academy. Come out and support us next week as we take on Hastings at home. Go Panthers!
