The Wrangell Lady Wolves and Craig Lady Panthers faced off this past weekend in a set of home games at Wrangell High School. The games were intense, with both teams clearly giving it their best efforts. Fortunately for Wrangell, the Lady Wolves managed to continue their recent winning streak.
The first game on Friday began with Wrangell taking a lead of 16-10. The Lady Panthers rallied in the second quarter, pulling ahead by a single point, 26-27.
Coach Laurie Brown said that Craig was finding weaknesses in their man-to-man defense however, once the Lady Wolves switched to a zone defense, Brown said they came back strong and pulled ahead again. Craig did their best to catch up but thanks to a strong defense by the Lady Wolves they only managed to make a few more baskets. The final score was 60-39, a win for Wrangell.
Saturday's game, on Feb. 1, once again opened with the Lady Wolves taking the lead. The score at the end of the first quarter was 13-5. Wrangell managed to maintain their lead the entire game, while both teams had a high-scoring game. The final score of the evening was 62-44, another win for the Lady Wolves.
"The girls did a really good job," Brown said.
The Lady Wolves will be traveling to Craig to play against the Lady Panthers again this weekend. Brown said that it is going to be a challenge, with Craig having a home-court advantage and being extra hungry for some wins, but she feels confident in her team.
