Sacred Heart Girls vs North Central


            In a game when the Sacred Heart fans were figuring out the area of similar rectangles, the Lady Trojan basketball team was figuring out math problems of its own as to finding the best angles to the basket. There right angles came out more acute and obtuse as they fell victim against the North Central Lady Hurricanes 75-30.
Natalie Earles scored the first points on the night. North Central answered, and Joseph put the Hurricanes ahead 4-2. At the 6:04 mark, Robertson from North Central shot from the free throw line to increase the lead to 6-2.
Earles picked up a defensive rebound, dribbled coast-to-coast, and was fouled. At the 5:37 mark, Sacred Heart was down 6-3. Kara Aguillard then added bucket to pull within 1.
            North Central moments later went on a 22-0 scoring run as the fans started murmuring that the Trojans needed to slow down. Moira Parks broke the scoring draught just over halfway through the quarter. Sacred Heart was at that point down 28-7.
After the teams traded a series of buckets, North Central buried a 3 pointer to go up 42-11. Earles was fouled at the half time buzzer and sank a foul shot. At the half Sacred Heart was down 46-12.
Martin started the half with a lay up to put the Hurricanes up 48-12. At the 5:25 mark Gabbie Andrepont went to the bench with her 4th foul as North Central went up 52-15. Joseph from North Central shot, scored, and almost went through the stage doors to go up 58-17. Sacred Heart added a bucket in the waning moments of the quarter as North Central was then up 61-21. Earles and Andrepont then added six points for the Trojans.  

            Borrowing from Ernest Lawrence Thayer, there was no joy to end the game as Gabbie Andrepont fouled out.
