Lady Lions Lose in 2OT

The Lady Lions Girls Basketball team travelled to Williamsburg last night in a game that became one of the most exciting yet disappointing games of the season. After a slow first half with significant foul trouble the girls were down 10 at half-time only to storm back in a 14-3 3rd quarter. Taking a 1 point lead into the 4th quarter the lions were slowed again by foul trouble with leading-scorer Reno Frayne fouling out with 4+ minutes left to play. Stepping up to lead the team was Freshman Josie Buckingham who ended the game with 24 points and 20 rebounds, both career highs. With another key player fouling out when Sarah Shoemaker committing her 5 foul with 2 minutes remaining the lady lions played the rest of regulation and both overtimes with key players on the bench. In the overtimes, missed free throws and key turnovers ultimately led to the loss, 44-40. Next @ CNE Thursday 1/27.
