“This was our third straight night having a match, but you couldn’t tell by the way the ladies performed tonight,” said coach Bill Holbrook. “Scores were down slightly, but they were rolling the ball well. It is great to see our Baker games back up where they should be. That will make a big difference for us as we approach the end of the season.
“It was a solid team effort tonight and a welcome couple days of from matches to try to get some things figured out in practice for a few of the girls,” the coach added. “I really like how this team has come together and the progress they are making. They work very hard at their craft and hold themselves to a very high standard. I believe that kind of dedication will really pay off for them.”
The Lady Wildcats now are 9-1 in league play.
