South Hamilton JV Girls' BB

Roland-Story

     On Tuesday, November 26, the South Hamilton junior varsity girls played Roland-Story at Jewell with South Hamilton winning 37-32.
     In the season opener the girls shot the ball well at 73 percent but struggled at the free-throw line at 33 percent.   Defense was good because they communicated well with each other to put the first win in the book and build some confidence.
     Kellie Gustafson led scoring with 12 points and pulled 14 rebounds.   Alyssa Wirtz added eight points, with Jenna Krause scoring four points and five rebounds.   Whitney Holt added four points, while Brandi Easterday scored two points and grabbed 10 rebounds and three steals.   Carrie Cavanaugh brought in five more points and made three out of four at the free-throw line with four rebounds.  Tarin Bell finished the game with two more points added to the final score, making two steals and two rebounds during the game.
     Coach Chally said, "Rebounding needs to improve on both the offense and defensive ends, but it is nice to have everyone score to balance our offense.   These are a good group of girls to work with.   They work hard, 
listen well and are out there to have fun and continue improving their game, making this an exciting game to watch."

Woodward-Granger

     On Monday, December 2 the South Hamilton girls' JV basketball team played Woodward-Granger and South Hamilton won 31-7.
     Jenna Krause scored eight points and grabbed two steals, while Alyssa Wirtz came through with seven points and four steals.   Brandi Easterday added four points, with four rebounds, four steals and six bloked shots.   Kellie Gustafson pulled down four rebounds and scored four points for South Hamilton.   Tarin Bell and Whitney Holt added four points each to the score.   Carrie Cavanaugh and Meredith Williams each had two points.   Carrie pulled down five rebounds.
     Coach Chally commented, "We started slow but picked it up the second quarter.   We held them scoreless until the third quarter.   We only shot 33 percent from the field but they played great defense.   Our shot selection is getting better and we are getting better looks at the basket.   Alyssa Wirtz has stepped up at the point and is starting to move the ball down court more aggressively.   That is fun to see."
