Jr. High Games
The Jr. High had a competitive and successful weekend. On Friday night Ten Sleep came to town and the girls played a very good game and came out on top 35 to 7. They came to play defence and our shots are starting to find the target. We only beat them by 4 points in Ten Sleep so you can see a big improvement.
On Saturday morning the Shoshoni Wranglers came to town with a very physical style of play. It was a tough back and forth game. Our girls again played good defence and matched up well. We were a little bruised and bloodied but came out on top 25 to 21.
With these two great efforts I am excited for our chances at our conference tourney next week. If we play together we have a great chance to do well!
As we have no school on Monday we will have an open gym at 4:00 p.m. to continue to work on our shooting and prep for the tourney.
Thanks again for all the support!
GO HORNS!!

JR.HIGH SCORES
The Jr. high girls had a very competitive weekend. On Friday afternoon we traveled to Burlington. The B-team had a great effort and won their game 24 to 19. The A-team played terrific defence , but couldn't get their shots to fall and ended up losing a tough contest 17 to 8.
On Saturday we traveled to Rocky Mountain ,with the B-team losing by the score of 31 to 13. The A-team were missing a couple of players to injury , and a couple playing injured, gave another great effort but fell to the grizz 37 to 23. We had a better offensive game but let them have a run in the third period and couldn't keep pace. With a couple more girls going down with injuries we are now offically the walking wounded. Even with the injuries our girls played great games and as their coach coudln't be prouded of their effort! Going into tournament on the 19th anf 20th I truly feel that we have a great chance to come out on top if we play together and with the effort they gave this last weekend.
As coach Paxton blogged , our games are both home this week with Ten Sleep on Friday and Shoshoni on Saturday morning.
As always thanks to you for supporting our girls and GO HORNS!!

JR. High basketball
It was another barn burnin weekend for the Jr. High girls. On Friday night we had a rematch with the Cloud Peak Cougars. We had a great first half of playing hard and went into the half with the lead. In the second half we struggled to score , but luckily so did the cougars, and we held on to win 14 to 13.
On Saturday the Rocky Mountain Grizzlies came into town. Again we had a good effort from the girls but we coudn't keep pace with the Grizzlies as they won 41 to 20.
These girls improve every week and we will work on our shooting this week so we can keep better pace with our next opponents. There are only two weeks before our tournament so we need to keep working hard to do well there.
Our next games will be on the road at Burlington on Friday with game times at 1:00 and 2:00 p.m. before the high school games. On Saturday we travel to Rocky Mountain with game times at 10:00 and 11:00 a.m.
