Frankenmuth Too Much For Lady Dukes

Balanced attack leads Lady Eagles to 66-16 win

January 12, 2013

There is an old adage that "You can't coach height". Frankenmuth had that and talent to go with it. While Garber hustled showing good ball control skills, the Eagles continued to pound the inside where their height dominated. But Frankenmuth showed greater versatility as they passed the ball back out hitting three pointers, five in the first half, as well as long jumpers.

In the first period, crisp passing and deadly accuracy was the rule as the Lady Eagles jumped out to a 26-6 lead. Garber continued to battle with scrappy play but it was not enough to keep them close.

The second period was much of the same. Garber continued to pressure Frankenmuth but the Eagles were clearly in control outscoring Garber by 14 to take a commanding 46-12 lead. The second half was a demonstration of what's good about our youth. Both teams came out working hard as if it was the first period. The results were much the same as Frankenmuth increased their lead to 60-16. The final period saw both teams empty their bench as the Eagles posted a 66-16 TVC win.
