Corry found themselves in a dog fight today against the visiting Girard Yellowjackets. The game started with Corry striking first with a bucket by Madi Leofsky and a free throw from Baylee Kuzma.

The stage was set for Corry to face its first close game of the season and the Corry girls were up to the challenge. Corry was able to score 6 unanswered points with Lauren Fox, Madi, and Koda each getting a bucket to give Corry a trilling 19-12 win.

Madi led all scorers with 8 pts.

I was really pleased with our play in the 2nd half. The girls fought hard and made a much-needed adjustment from the first half, notably the need to box out a taller Girard team. 

It's a great learning experience for the girls to be in a close game. They got to experience late game pressure and as a bonus, got the win.

 

7th grade game

Corry  6-4-3-6  19 

Girard 8-4-0-4  16

 

It was a tight game the whole way against the visiting Yellow Jackets. Corry came out strong getting six points, 2 each from Mikayla Comitz Liv Swan and Baylee Northrop. However, Girard answered with eight of their own points draining several mid-range shots. Corry turned up the intensity in the second quarter forcing several Girard turnovers but were only able to get four points, 2 from West and 2 from Molly Harrington, to Girard's four points. Girard holding the slim two point advantage at the half. Corry got the lead back in the third quarter getting a basket from Maci Kemp and a foul shot from West while holding Girard scoreless. The battle continued into the 4th. Corry got a bucket from Comitz but Girard was able to get 4 points of their own to take the slim lead by 1 with 1:35 to go in the game. Corry answered with two quick buckets from Comitz and Northrop, to take the lead and get the win. It was a hard fought battle in a hot gym. We did not have our A game today, but were able to overcome some of our mistakes with our hustle and high energy. As with the 8th grade game, it was a great learning experience for these girls, playing in a high pressure situation. Getting the win was icing on the cake. Corry plays at Seneca on Tuesday.
