PENNFIELD SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL: 53
Playing the 2nd of back to back games, the Eaton Rapids Greyhounds visited Battle Creek Pennfield tonight. What ended up being a battle of two star players, Eaton Rapids couldn't slow down the guard from Pennfield, Kaylee Glidden, as she went for 32 points tonight.
It was a slow start for the Lady Hounds, only being able to manage 5 points in the opening quarter, trailing 5-15. The 2nd quarter went back forth a bit, as neither team seemed to be able to make a run. Pennfield went into the half leading 24-13.
In the 3rd quarter, both teams found their offensive groove, igniting for a combined 35 points! As the Greyhound offense came alive, it was only enough to pull slightly closer to Pennfield and trailed 31-41 at the quarter break. In the 4th quarter, the teams traded baskets, before Eaton Rapids went on a little run, pulling to within 6 at 46-41. Unfortunately, time was running out, and the host Panthers dealt with some tough pressure, scoring on three straight possessions. The Greyhounds fought to the end, but ended the game losing 41-53.
Sofia Kingsley led the way with a career high 25 points tonight, while Flora Steien chipped in 6 points. Kylie Alvarez added 5, Abbi Thompson had 2, Ashley Brown had 2, and Lori Sy put in 1. Eaton Rapids is next in action on Friday night, where they host Ionia for their Winterfest game. Game time is 7pm!
