Coyotes Fall to the Varsity and JV Eagles

(Click here to see the Turlock Journal article about the game)

The JV Eagles Fly by Coyotes

The JV continued it juggernaut through the Southern League with an impressive win over the Denair Coyotes on Monday night. Using a relentless press the Eagles turned a close halftime game into a wrought. Excellent defense led to a multitude of fast breaks and lay-ups. Outstanding performances were had by Natalie S., Ashley B., Paige U., Tara, Mary and many others. The Eaglets improved to 4 wins and 0 losses in the Southern League. Way to go JV.

The Lady Eagles improved to 2 and 2 in the Southern League with an impressive 62-32 win over Denair. The team continues to play outstanding defence resulting in 26 steals, 28 defensive rebounds and 6 blocked shots. The offense dominated the backboards with 32 rebounds and scored the third most points of the season. The team's shooting percentage was vastly improved over the last 6 games.

After a close 1st quarter, 17-11, Denair did not score double figures in any of the remaining periods. The depth of the Eagles was to much for Denair. The team came out at halftime in a full court press that the Coyotes could not handle. In one stretch, in the second half, the Eagles hit three consecutive 3 pointers in just a few seconds taking the bite out of the Coyotes.

Stellar defensive performances included:

Blocks: Kara Gabrielson and Molly Zuhlke (2)
Steals: Erin Santiago (6), Tiffany Synder (5), Molly Farrar (5), and Kara G (3)
Defensive Rebounds: Marly Burton (7), Kaisa Spycher (5) and Molly Z (4)

Superb offensive performances included:

Points: Erin (14), Amy Wright (9), Marly (8), and Kara (8)
Offensive Rebounds: Aubrey Larson, Emily Breuss, and Marly (6 each)
Assists: Erin and Kara (3 each)

Great game girls.

Come out and cheer the team on against Waterford at Calvary Baptist on Thursday. JV starts at 6PM and Varsity at 7:30. See you there.
