February 3:
The 8th Grade B Team continued their winning ways in another match up with Colona. The girls put pressure on the Trojans early and after a tight game through 3 quarters, broke away with a 10 point lead in the 4th! After a close game on Monday, we were relieved to walk away with a 25-15 victory! It was a well-rounded night for the Lady Leafs, as almost every team member made a basket! The next game is on Saturday at the Sterling Tournament.
Scholastic Bowl had a great night last night with both the 6th/7th grade team and the 8th grade team taking home a win. The 6th/7th grade made up of Captain Carter French, Tivya Bernier, Nicole Werling, Meghan Scheider, Lydia Carton, Elly George, and Delaney Killian were able to secure a win of 140 points to 120 points. The game was neck and neck until the end! Great job, 6th & 7th grade team! The 8th grade team made up of Captain Grace Carlson, Eli Palmer, Carson Pratt, Evelyn Dahl, and Ava-Lyn Bros had an impressive game scoring a total of 200 points! Rockridge was not able to fight them off and only scored 95 points. Great job, 8th grade team! Scholastic Bowl will practice on Monday next week and compete against Annawan next Thursday!
The next GMS Yearbook staff meeting will be Tuesday, February 7th after school until 4:30pm. Please inform an advisor if you cannot attend.
