Tough Loss at Home for GBK

The Varsity Girls Basketball Team lost a tough one at home tonight 53-52 to Madeira. Josie Buckingham led the way for the lions scoring 20 points, but also accumulated 5 fouls. Without 44 in the lineup for periods of time in the first half and the last 2 minutes of the game New Richmond was unable to score or defend effectively. A combination of foul trouble, missed lay ups, missed free throws, and turnovers eventually doomed the Lady Lions tonight. Next vs Western Brown Thrusday

Josie Buckingham was dominant recording her 3rd career triple-double, scoring 30 points, grabbing 23 rebounds, and blocking 17 shots. Maren Hance was dynamic in the open floor while scoring 5 points and dishing 8 assists. Tina Lawrence was instrumental on defense and also added 6 points and 5 rebounds. The win improves their record to 12-6 on the season and give the girls much needed momentum going into tournament season.
