MARSHALL HIGH SCHOOL: 44
The action was fast and furious tonight as the Lady Greyhounds traveled south to face Marshall in a rematch of last year's district championship. Much like that game though, the Redhawks from Marshall came out on top.
As the tip went up tonight, the Greyhounds jumped out to a lead behind Sofia Kingsley back-to-back 3-pointers, 6-2. For the rest of the quarter, both teams used faced paced play to push the score to a 15-13 Greyhounds lead at the end of the first. In the second quarter though, the Greyhounds offense stalled a bit, scoring only 4 points in the quarter as Marshall poured it on and took a 30-19 lead at the halftime break.
In the 3rd quarter, the Greyhounds clawed back, trimming the Marshall lead down to single digits, getting it to a 24-30 deficit. But the Redhawks answered with a basket and three free throws to pull back ahead by 11. A final bucket by Ayla Worden cut the lead to 9 at the end of the 3rd quarter, 26-35. In the 4th quarter, Eaton Rapids again made a run on back to back layups, cutting the lead to 5 for Marshall. After a basket by Marshall made the lead 7, the Lady Hounds made a final push to pull even, but it fell short. Marshall then iced the game with a few free throws, with a final result of 44-32.
The Greyhounds were lead once again by Sofia Kingsley with 15 points. Ayla Worden added 6 points, Abbi Thompson added 5, and Flora Steien, Zoe Newberry, and Kylie Alvarez all added 2 points each to round out the scoring.
Join the Lady Greyhounds on Tuesday for their home opener as they look for their first win of the season when they host St. Johns. JV play begins at 5:30 and the Varsity follows at 7:00.
