Not a whole lot of fans drove to Baker City to watch our Lady Wolverines take on the Lady Bulldogs on Friday, December 9. The Frosh/Soph game was a thriller with Weiser just squeeking by due to free throws to claim the victory 27-26. The JV were not so lucky as BC defeated our gals 27-26. The varsity game belonged exclusively to Weiser. The team looked like a well-oiled machine, shooting well and playing that tenacious defense we have come to know and love. Weiser would annihilate Baker City 56-16.
Starters for varsity were Kellyn Fuller, Nella Redman, Marquita Palmer, McKenzie Johnson and Sadie Shirts. The tip belonged to Palmer. It took a few trips up and down the court before Weiser found their rythym. Shirts to Palmer for the turn-around jumper. Palmer to Redman inside for the bank shot. Rachael Lee came in off the bench and made herself known real quick. Lee stole the ball from a BC player after a rebound and hit the fade-away jumper. Fuller to Lee for the elevated shot putting Weiser up 8-0.
Johnson made a free throw with under two minutes to play. Redman to Johnson on the fast break for the left-handed lay-in. Johnson to Fuller for the first of her THREE's! Redman with the defensive rebound sent a long pass down the court. Fuller almost didn't catch up with the ball. Thankfully, Kellyn was able to catch the ball just as she hit the end of the court and made the lay-up count. Fuller would make a free throw. Weiser had a substantial lead after one quarter 17-3.
Redman hit a long two in the top of the second quarter. Lee forced a five second ball giving Weiser possession. Fuller to Shirts for two. Johnson hit a lazy looking THREE! Palmer putback an offensive rebound. Johnson to Fuller for the second THREE on the night. Not 20 seconds later, Fuller nailed her third THREE! Weiser would head to the locker room leading 32-8 at the half.
Weiser continued to pile in the points in the third quarter. Palmer with the "D" rebound outlet passed to Fuller on the fastbreak for two. Johnson stole the ball and with Shirts sprinting with her down the court, Johnson made the pass to Shirts for the bucket, 36-8. Redman and Johnson both made a free throw and Redman hit a field goal. Weiser would lead 39-13 at the end of three.
In the fourth quarter, only five field goals were made. Palmer had a basket and an "O" rebound putback. Redman made a shot off the fast break and the first shot of the quarter and Fuller received a pass from Shirts for the bucket. The rest of the points came from the free throw line. Weiser would win 56-16.
Scoring: Fuller 18, Redman 11, Johnson 10, Palmer 9, Shirts and Lee 4 each.
