Manson vs. Okanogan
January 11
Recap: The Lady Trojans hosted #1 ranked Okanogan in league action Tuesday night. The Bulldogs from Okanogan were as impressive as advertised as they pressed their way to a 71- 9 victory over the host Trojans. The Trojans, who were without 2 starting guards, lost sophomore starter and defensive stalwart Natalee Reyna to a twisted knee.
“We got after it early and blew right through their press. We were a little indecisive in the 2nd half against their zone... and we adjusted well. Okanogan can flat play! Our seniors were outstanding and we got great help from our Freshmen and 8th graders. We really missed our 3 guards and can’t wait to get them back,” said Manson Head Coach Steve Nygreen.
The Lady Trojans return to league action Friday as they host rival Brewster.
