The Whippet Girls’ Basketball Team came out strong in the beginning of the first half in a very physical, faced-paced game at Brodhead on Friday, February 11. We were tied within the first 9 minutes of the first half, playing a tight defense. Brodhead went on an 11-point scoring run, stretching their lead. Going in to halftime, we were down 14-37.

We got into foul trouble, and struggled to stop Brodhead’s offense, coming up short, 37-67.

Josie Treder led the Whippets with 10 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist. Gwen Truesdale contributed 6 points (4 for 4 from the free throw line), 3 blocks, and 2 rebounds. Cali Kopecky also added 6 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 steals.

The Whippets will host Evansville at home Monday, February 14th. It is our last regular season home game and Senior Night.
