7th Grade Game

It was another nail biter for the 7th graders. Fairview, well known for their basketball teams, came to town and put up a good fight. Corry was hot in the first quarter getting a few steals and layups from Mikayla Comitz and Ava West. Their intense defense was able to hold Fairview to just 4 points. The second quarter was similar to the first, with good defense on both sides. Corry getting 4 points to Fairview 2. Corry with the lead at the half, 11-6. In the 3rd, Corry tried to drive in to too much traffic turning the ball over more. This resulted in only 2 points in the quarter. Fairview scored four to knock Corry's lead down to 3. Corry increased their lead by 4 with about 3 minutes left in the game on a basket by Comitz and then a 3 point play also by Comitz. Fairview then inbounded and tried driving to the hoop but Maci Kemp was there to take the charge. Fairview was able to score on their next possession however cutting the lead to two. At this point both teams were in the bonus. Fairview was able to knock down two foul shots to tie the game at 17. With .59 seconds left, Kemp was fouled and made 1of 2 foul shots to go up one. She then ran down the court to get good position and take her second charge of the game and giving the ball back to Corry. With .27 seconds left Kemp was fouled again, draining 1of 2 foul shots going up 19-17.  Fairview had another chance with under .10 on the clock, but Corry defended their baseline out of bounds play well, and was able to force the turnover, control the ball, and secure the win. For the game Comitz led all scorers with 12, Kemp with 4 and West with 3. Fairview is well known for their solid basketball program, and we knew it would be a tough match up. Our girls held the lead for the majority of the game. They did a great job of keeping their composure when Fairview tied it back up. The girls also did well adjusting their defense toward the end of the game to try not to foul. Mikayla had herself a game today not only offensively, but defensively as well with six steals. As a team, we were almost 50% from the foul line, including clutch ones near the end of the game. Our girls learned a lot this game, and can use this experience going forward for other tight games. Their constant hustle and teamwork earned them this win. The 7th graders are back at it again tomorrow at Iroquois.
