SK Girls Roll To Hoop Victory Over GCR
GILBOA - the South Kortright (SK) girls defeated the Gilboa Conesville/Roxbury (GC/R) squad 49-13 on the road Monday.
The Rams pounced from the get-go after a stall in the season due to the holidays.
“It was good to get back on the court,” said SK Coach Josh Burroughs. “The girls opened up strong and relied on our full court pressure to keep GC/R playing a faster paced game.”
Burroughs added, the match was one of the most complete games for the Rams in terms of balance and teamwork.
“As a unit, everyone was able to contribute on both ends on the floor,” he said. “They are a group that hasn’t played a lot of basketball together. In each game, we can see improvements and they are gaining more understanding of the game.”
SK senior Carly Dropp had a double-double with 13 points and 10 boards. She also contributed five steals and two assists. Teammate Alyssa Tucker fired in 10 points and tallied six steals, Maddy Reeves and Lexi Hendrickson earned seven points respectively, for the Rams. The team combined for more than 30 steals.
For GC/R, Calleigh Porter and teammate Jacey O’Donnell each had four points, respectively.
SK is 4-4overall and 2-1 in league play.
