The visiting Lady Eagles of Turlock Christian landed in the Elliot Christian "Eagles Nest". By the end of the game the home Eagles were out gunned and out runned (is that a word?) by TC. The team had an excellent offensive night, scoring 83 points, making over 50% of their 2pt field goals, dishing out 21 assists, and gathering up 31 offensive rebounds. Defensively the team continued to dominate inside the paint (in and around the key area / near the basket), with 29 defensive rebounds and 7 block shots, and stole the ball 19 times. Elliot had a difficult time scoring with the exception of hitting the 3 pointers.
With TC leading by 47 to 16 at half time the 100 point barrier was a possibility, but the combination of Coach Edwin's classiness and a running clock (in high school basketball when a team leads by 30 points in the fourth quarter the clock does not stop for anything) the girls "only" scored 83 points.
Outstanding Individual Performances:
Scoring: Halie Bergman (30), Amy Wright (14) and Kaisa Spycher (12).
Assists: Molly Farrar (6), Kara Gabrielson (5), Candice Balswick & Molly Zuhlke (3 each).
Blocks: Marly Burton (3), Halie & Molly Z (2 each).
Rebounds: Kaisa & Halie (11), Amy & Marly (8 each), and Molly Z (5).
Steals: Molly F (4), Natalie Snyder & Candice (3 each).
