The curtain opened for Morris Area Chokio Alberta girls basketball on
Tuesday, Dec. 3. It opened with coach Dale Henrich's squad looking very
impressive.
The site was Wheaton. The Tigers won their debut game impressively, 64-46
over Wheaton-Herman-Norcross.
Beth Holland made a three-point shot and finished with a team-best 22
points. Lauren Reimers and Abbie Olson each put in 12 points. Becca Holland
added eight points to the mix, and the following Tigers each scored two points:
Tracy Meichsner, Nicole Strobel, Moira McNally, Kayla Pring and Kaitlin Vogel.
Meichsner attacked the boards to collect eight rebounds. Becca Holland
pulled down six rebounds. The assist leader was Becca with five, followed by
Reimers with four and these three Tigers each with three: Meichsner, Strobel and
Vogel.
Reimers was aggressive with her play, collecting eight steals. Beth
Holland, Becca Holland and Vogel each had two steals.
Beth Holland's 3-pointer came on the team's only attempt of the evening! In
total field goals the squad made 28 of 65 shots. The freethrow numbers were
seven of 19. The Tigers collected 38 rebounds and were whistled for 12
fouls.
Osakis 59, Tigers 34
Thursday was home opener night for MACA girls basketball.
The Tigers were coming off an impressive debut win over
Wheaton-Herman-Norcross. Unfortunately for MACA, Thursday would not be a repeat.
The Silver Streaks of Osakis - a neat nickname - came here and defeated our
Tigers 59-34. Osakis had command by halftime, up 31-16.
The Tigers have been conservative with their three-point shooting but
there's no problem with their percentage. Against WHN the numbers were
one-for-one, and against Osakis they were one-for-two. Beth Holland made the '3'
against WHN, and Lauren Reimers hit the long-ranger versus Osakis.
Reimers' nine total points vs. Osakis led the team. Becca Holland put in
eight points and Lacee Maanum had four. Becca Holland, Tracy Meichsner and Kayla
Pring each scored three. Beth Holland and Abbie Olson each contributed two
points.
Becca's five rebounds led the squad. Beth Holland and Meichsner each had
two assists. Reimers stole the ball three times.
The top Silver Streak scorer was Johanna Boogaard with 14 points. Annalise
Savageau reached double figures with her ten. Savageau, Mackenzie Staloch and
Brooke Sorenson each made a 3-pointer.
Coach Henrich's MACA squad will host Minnewaska Area on Tuesday, Dec.
10.
