Lilly Schneeberger was hot again from the outside hitting 5 threes and ended up with 16 points while Audry Gruhn had 14 and Tenley Cewe with 10. The Varsity girls came out quick getting up early and coasted to a 66-38 win and move to 5-4. Many girls filled the stat sheet last night with Jhaliana Guy leading the way in scoring with 31. Lilly Hankins and Carryn Sattler both had 8. Sattler also added 10 rebounds while Samantha Powell added 8, Aubrey Fergurson 7 and Alli Haskell 7. Guy added 6 steals and Haskell had 4 assists. Congrats to Aubrey Fergurson who became Clinton's all-time career leading rebounder! If you see her, make sure you tell her "Great Job"! The Queens play next on Friday at Muscatine and again on Saturday vs. Sterling in the Iowa-Illinois Shootout.
Last night the River Kings came back from break against Davenport West at home last night. The Freshman squad kicked off the night on fire, with plenty of run outs and sharing the ball. A total team effort led to a 63-17 win for the Freshman. The sophomores started slow in their game, down by a score of 22-37 at halftime. The sophomore group came out inspired in the third quarter, pressuring the Falcons and cutting the lead down to 8. The Kings fought hard but ultimately came up short with a final of 55-69. The Varsity team ran into a tough Falcon basketball squad who shot the ball well. The kings fell by a score of 52-77. The Kings are back in action Friday evening in a boy girl doubleheader at Muscatine High school. Go Kings!
