The girls basketball game took place at Wayne Trace on December 18. This match started with Wayne Trace’s Myers and Edgerton’s Bowen, both juniors, tipping the ball and the Raiders took the first possession. It didn’t last long with that at the beginning of the game as the guest ran over the Raiders, quickly achieving double digits on the board, while the Wayne Trace girls struggled to even hit the rim. After a brief timeout, the home girls got the Bulldogs offense under control and they also started adding points to the board themselves. The first quarter wasn’t a total upset. There were several three pointers on the home side, but it was the Bulldogs who were really pushing points from the cheap seats with 12 baskets by the fourth.

The second quarter began and Courtney Mead was able to put another three pointer on tying the game. Soon they overtook Edgerton by a wide margin between Gracie Gudakunst and Erin Mohr, looking like a completely different team by throughout the second quarter.

The second half was another good match, and by the fourth, the Lady Bulldogs were on fire, but the 27 points wasn’t enough to clear the debt created in the second and third periods. The Raiders came back to overcome the Edgerton girls, who are a tough team to beat: 65-59.
