MS Basketball 2010-03-03 OHMS vs Anacortes

The Anacortes Seahawks traveled to OHMS for a pair of middle school girls basketball games on March 3rd and left double winners.

Due to some player issues, the 8th grade team played first. The Panthers got on the board first when K.C. Winfield snagged the rebound and put it back for two, but there wasn't much more scoring as OH had some problems going against the Seahawk press. By then end of the 1st period, Anacortes had taken a 15-7 lead and increased it to 30-15 at the half. OH couldn't get much going in the 2nd half either as Anacortes cruised to a 61-25 win. Leading the Panthers was Annie Leete with 16 points. Sam Hawkins scored 3 while Winfield, Makenzie Schulle and Maria Backus scored 2 each.
