JV Girls Basketball - March 22

Eagles Demolish Griffins 39-5

Story by Jesse Mann, SCCLC

        The SCCLC Eagles JV girls basketball team won a lopsided victory today against the SCIS Griffins. Both teams played a fierce first quarter leading to several fouls on both sides. After ten minutes of impressive gameplay, the Eagles held a three point lead 6 – 3. Early in the second quarter, the undermanned Griffins lost a player due to fouls. The Eagles eagerly exploited this advantage and went on a large scoring streak, overwhelming the four remaining Griffins. 

        The remainder of the game consisted of the Eagles scoring repeatedly, allowing only one more Griffin basket. Despite being undermanned, the International girls fought fiercely, which resulted in one exhausted Griffin needing to be helped off the court. The game ended with an uneven score of 39 – 5 in favor of the Eagles.
