BANTAM GIRLS (Grades 5 & 6) vs. St. Matthias Won
Girls Intermediate had a solid 24-14 win against St Matthias. I was happy that our girls kept their composure and only got called for 4 fouls the entire game although playing aggressive defense and only giving up 8 points through the first 3 quarters. Allison led the way with 8 points, Jessica and Lelaina played very good point guard, staying under control for the most part and getting their teammates involved. Jessica also added 4 points as did Hanna who was getting nice passes inside from Jessica, Alexandra and others. Arietta added 4 points on a couple of CYO running prayers. Alexandra and Christina added strong rebounding and 2 points each. The team was very happy that they beat St Matthias for the 3rd time and improved to 8-0.
