Fall league girls basketball

Both the varsity and JV teams were in action Sunday. The JV team played at 1:30 under coach Keely Smollack, but I don't have any results.

The varsity played at 5:45 at Skagit Valley College against Stanwood, and it was a hard game on the Wildcats as they were missing many regular players. Jessica Denmon is injured, Molly Deleon had a family commitment, and Cheyenne Tubo and Cori Henricksen were also missing. Most of the players that did show up were almost late due to the traffic in Anacortes due to the Oyster Run. Stanwood won the game, but it was a good challenge for the girls that were there, and many of the girls, who will be JV this winter, got some good playing time against a good Stanwood team. Janelle Yoshimoto and Sheena Corey traded point guard duties. Coach Gary Brundidge said there was a new girl, from Belgium, who played a bit and did well, and at one point in the game, Becca Moeai, who is not what you would call a petite girl, tripped and fell right on top of the Stanwood post player. Neither girls was injured, and both were able to continue.

Next for the fall league girls are games at 11:15 and 12:20 next Sunday at Skagit Valley College. Admission is FREE!!!
