Girls Basketball

The MCA girls basketball team traveled up to Manchester to take on the Holy Family Academy. Things got off on the wrong foot for the Lions when on the first play of the game, the girls lost starting center, Becca Peterson, to an ankle injury. Later in the game, Michaela Reichl, who was already playing on a tender ankle, took a shot to the ribs and had to finish the game on the bench with Becca. It was a tough battle under the boards and both teams fought a good fight, but someone had to win and unfortunately it was the Holy Family Academy by a score of 12-10. Michaela Reichl lead the scoring for the Lions with 4, followed by Kaitlyn Hartling and Jinnea Herber each with 3 points. Rachel Bourgeois had a good game off the bench, playing aggressive at both ends of the court. The girls have practice on Monday and we'll discuss the rest of the season then.
