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.
