Well, it certainly wasn't pretty. But, The Lady Railroaders defeated Prairie Heights tonight by a score of 56-38. The lone highlight of the night was freshman Brandi Dawson scoring a career high 24 points. She was amazing throughout the game. Heather House had a bad night but most people didn't know she was suffering from the flu. She struggled all night but really gave a gutsy effort to still help lead the team. You can tell a lot about an athlete by how hard they play when they are sick. Good Job Heather!
The Railroaders had 17 turnovers for the night. Most of the time you will lose a game when you have that many turnovers. But, PH had 22. They helped us survive the night. Jordyn Knott was the only other GHS player in double figures (12 points). The Lady Railroaders dominated most of the other stats winning the rebounds, steals, and blocks.
A team really shows it's character when it has an off night and still wins the game. Now we can move on to focus all our energy on the Leo Lady Lions. This is the biggest game of the young season to this point. If we want to win an ACAC title, we have to go through the tough Leo Girls Basketball team to do it.
Remember it's "Black Out" night! Saturday Night. C-team game begins at 5pm followed by the JV at about 6:15 and the Varsity at about 8 oclock. GOOD LUCK LADY RAILROADERS!
