Whenever there is a Christmas break, you never know who stays in town and who travels. In the case of the girls basketball team, the varsity girls all stayed but the younger squads had slim pickin's. Weiser hosted Baker City on Thursday, December 29th. The Frosh/Soph playing with six girls won 23-20. The JV only had five ladies and dropped the game. The varsity began a bit slow but momentum belonged to Weiser as the win came 43-14.
Starters were Marquita Palmer, Kellyn Fuller, Nella Redman, Sadie Shirts and McKenzie Johnson. Weiser would control the trip but it was quite some time before any points graced the board. BC actually scored a free throw for their one and only lead of the game. Redman drove for two and then hit another shot. Fuller putback an offensive rebound. Weiser led 6-4 at the end of the first quarter.
In the top of the second quarter, Shirts had a terrific move for the mid-range hoop. Redman sank a shot. Palmer with the "O" rebound putback. Redman hit a THREE, 15-4 Weiser. Palmer putback another "O" rebound. Shirts to Palmer for two. Shirts hit her own bucket. Palmer finished out the first half with her basket sending Weiser in at the half leading 25-9.
Redman scored the first basket of the third quarter. Shirts drove the lane, making the basket count as she was fouled. Sadie sank the free throw as well, 30-12 Weiser. Palmer for two. Rachael Lee to Alex Mink for two. Lee with her own hoop on a nice play. Palmer would once again hit the last bucket of the quarter. Weiser 38, BC 12.
