Here is the recap from the 7th and 8th grade girls basketball games against Blue River.
7th grade: The Lady Bears were victorious after playing against the Blue River Vikings 14-10. The team took the early lead and held it throughout the game. They moved the ball well and made some key stops late in the game.
8th grade: The Lady Bears defeated the Vikings 38-26. They put pressure on the ball and got lots of steals. They pushed the ball up the floor and moved the ball well. Great overall team win as each girl scored. Both teams will go on to face Eastern Hancock in the Final Four of the MEC tournament. Go Bears!!
