Lady Wildcat Victory

The 7th grade Lady Wildcats got their first victory over the Dutchman Creek Gators.  It was a victory that centered around swarming defense and team work.  In the first quarter, we held the Gators scoreless with Scarlett Gilmore, Cameryn Austin, and Messiah Pendergrass putting pressure on the ball handlers, and Anna Carter and Carren Venables stopping any would be scores at the rim. After the second quarter, the Wildcats started to separate themselves taking a 12 to 4 lead.  The Gators were trying to put something together in the 3rd, until Gilmore dropped a 3 pointer to regain momentum.  The lady Wildcats went 8 for 17 from the free-throw line helping secure a 25 to 15 victory over the Gators.  The "GYM RAT" award was given to Anna Carter for her tough defense and court awareness.  On Monday, December 9th, the team will square off with Sullivan in the first away game of the season (5 PM).
