Sweet Home girls basketball started off in the win column with a 40-25 road victory against Sisters on Friday.
“We played really well,” said Head Coach Michelle Knight. “We have some things to work on, rebounding and boxing out and things like that, but overall I was really happy with the girls.”
Knight said “We moved the ball really well and didn’t get rattled. We kept our composure and kept the lead.”
Knight said the girls were behind in the first quarter, but after coming back from that deficit they were ahead the whole game.
Brooke Burke scored 20 points in the game. Natalie Rodgers and Adaira Burger each added on six points for the Huskies. Chloe Fairchild scored four points, and Katie Miller and Katie Robeck each tacked on two.
The Huskies didn’t fare as well on the scoreboard against Woodburn, falling 53-41. But Knight said, “we played great basketball.”
She said that “some of our kids need to score a little bit more than they have been, and that will come with more playing.”
“We only had four kids actually score points and they had six girls scoring, so I think that was the difference.”
Burke scored 27, Burger scored six, Rodgers scored five, and Miller scored three for the Huskies.
