Lady Wolves go 1-1 against Miss Chiefs

The Wrangell Lady Wolves played a set of home games against the Metlakatla Miss Chiefs last week, Feb. 14 and 15. Both teams have been having strong performances this year. The last time the two teams met, after Rally the Regions in early January, Wrangell walked away defeated in two very close games. This time, however, both teams fought hard and managed one win each.

In the second quarter, Metlakatla pulled ahead to an 11-point lead at 22-33, but this was as far ahead as they would manage to get. The Lady Wolves narrowed the gap in the third quarter at 34-40. However, they did not manage to catch up in time. The final score of the game was 41-50, a win for the Miss Chiefs.

Saturday's game, on Feb. 15, was a hard but victorious fight for Wrangell. The game started with Metlakatla holding a narrow lead at 12-13. By the end of the first half, Wrangell was barely in the lead at 20-19. The Lady Wolves pulled ahead in the third quarter and put the score at 30-22. The final score was 42-30, a win for the Lady Wolves.

The Lady Wolves will be facing the Petersburg Lady Vikings this weekend, in their homecoming games on Feb. 21 and 22.
