Samantha and her Bronchos teammates tipped off another
game, this time against the Brandon Middle School team. After falling behind 4-0
early in the game, the girls got it together to take a 6-0 lead by the end of
the first quarter. They expanded their lead to 12-4 at halftime thanks to some
good defense and some quality offense on their behalf. The Brandon team came out
pumped up in the third quarter, however, holding the Bronchos to just one point
while drawing within 2, with the Bronchos still leading, but only by a score of
13-11. After letting Brandon tie up the game, the girls finally started finding
the bottom of the net once again, finally settling in for a 21-15 victory. Sam
got her first three point and free-throw attempts in this game, but
unfortunately she didn't make any of them. She did score a basket, however, and
played her usual strong defense throughout. Way to go Bronchos!
