Nearly everyone on the varsity roster got a lot of playing time tonight and contributed to a comfortable win for the Lady Railroader Basketball team. The Railroaders forced 35 Central Noble turnovers on the way to a convincing 56-19 win over Central Noble. Once again defense was the key. Our opponents just can't handle the pressure which is applied by nearly every player. Central Noble shot only 19% from the field (5 of 27) while the Railroaders were 23 of 48.
Offensively the Railroaders were led by Katie DePew with 18 points. Becca Oliver had 11 points. Brandi Dawson had 9 points, Jordyn Knott 8 points, Laura Moynahan 6 points, and Emma Riedly had 4 points. Katie DePew also had 6 assists. Defensively Becca Oliver led the team with 4 steals, a blocked shot and 5 rebounds.
Every category of the game was led by the Lady Railroaders.
Now comes a couple of tough tests on the road. The team travels to Dekalb on Friday Night (6:15 JV Tip) and then to Angola next Tuesday Night (6:00pm JV Tip). These two games are great tests to see where we're at and what we need to do to contend for Conference Championships and Sectional Titles.
Good Luck Ladies!

GSO Lady Railroader Season Ends! But Soccer Not Done!
Tonight the Lady Railroaders met a senior laden, very talented, Westview Soccer team and were defeated 7-0. Westview dominated the sectional scoring 19 goals in just two games. Our girls battled with a great defensive strategy and didn't give up the first goal until 12 minutes into the game. That may not sound like much, but it is a big deal.
Terry Yarde and the senior girls did a great job focusing on the sectional after struggling during the regular season. This team had injury after injury and had a tough time getting the win. But, that did not stop them from avenging two key losses during sectionals. We are proud of you and how far you came. We wish the seniors luck in their future and are excited to see how the underclassmen improve for next year!
Soccer isn't over at GHS. Garrett will host the IHSAA Boys Soccer Regional tournament on Thursday and Saturday this week. In game #1 -- Lakeland will face the #1 state ranked Canterbury soccer team at 5pm. Game #2 will see the Bishop Luers team face Lakewood Park. That game will start at about 7pm. The championship game will be held at Garrett on Saturday Night at 7pm. We will see some great soccer at the "Pitch" in Garrett. Good Luck to all the teams!

Scores!
Lakeland defeated the Railroader Boys Soccer team tonight at home 5-3. Tonight Nathan Sliger scored all 3 goals for the Railroaders. The Girls Lost at Columbia City to Columbia City. Maybe the Director of Soccer Operations knows the final score. I do know that Heather House scored the lone goal for the Railroaders with an assist from Chelsea Zahner. Heather reported that we played well and improved on our score from last year against a very good Columbia City team.
The Railroader Volleyball team dominated the Churubusco Eagles in 3 straight games. The first two games were not even close 25-13, 25-12. We lost a little focus early in the 3rd game but came back from a large deficit to win 25-22. The girls are really on a roll now with a 2-1 record.
The Football team faces cross county rival Eastside Blazers tomorrow night with a kickoff the kickoff at 7pm. The cross country teams run a team relay event called a "Hokem Karem". Come out to the cross country course to witness a preseason showcase of some top area cross country teams.
