From the Sports Desk:
The 7th Grade Girls' Basketball B team dominated in their game vs. Thompson last week. Unstoppable Bella Beltz put up 14 points while South held down the fort on defense, holding Thompson to just 8 points. Brooklyn Cornish, Reese Gunier, and Harper Kobbeman were focused & fiery, putting the pressure on, on both ends of the court and contributing another 10 points.
In South's 7th Grade Girls' Basketball A team’s last game vs. Thompson, Emma Peterson brought the fire, while the Vikings demonstrated their resiliency as a team to switch up their defense and hold Thompson to just 6 points in the second half. The girls weren't able to battle back from a second quarter deficit but are ready to knock down shots against North tonight.
