The Whitewater Girls’ Basketball Team played their first regular season game against Lake Mills, a non-conference opponent, on Tuesday, November 16. The Whippets had trouble scoring early in the first half but battled hard with the Wildcats. They closed the gap to 8 points, but then ended the first half trailing by 13. 

Lake Mills pulled away in the second half by forcing turnovers with a full court press, and ended with the win, outscoring the Whippets 61-40. 

Kindyl Kilar led the team in scoring with 17 points, 12 of which were free throws. Mayte Navejas added 12 points, followed by Gwen Truesdale with 4.
