Girls Basketball - fall league

The Oak Harbor High School girls basketball team is fielding both a JV and Varsity team in the fall league through the Skagit County Parks & Recreation department, and both teams had games on Sunday, Sep 21st.

The JV team is made up primarily of freshmen, with sophomores and juniors used as needed to fill the roster. The JV squad is coached by Keely Smollack and the varsity by long-time youth basketball coach Gary Brundidge.

The varsity game was first, against Arlington. It looked good for the 'Cats, as the held a 25-13 halftime lead, but after that, Arlington took over on both ends of the court. The 2nd half was very physical, and OH wasn't able to get their offense in gear, scoring only 8 points to Arlington's 26, and the girls wound up on the short end of a 39-33 score.

The JV game was similar, in that the girls held a 17-14 halftime lead over Mt. Vernon, but the our girls had a hard time getting rebounds on both ends of the court while Mt. Vernon was able to get 2 and even 3 shots off during each possession. By the end of the game Mt. Vernon turned their deficit into a 34-25 victory.
