Catching up on recaps

My apologies for not having the blog updated like i should. It's been kinda crazy this week...

Tuesday, March 3
2A Girls Substate first round in Salina

Rep County.....7..15...5..24..5...56
Sacred Heart..20..10...7..14..11..62 ot

RC: Shoemaker 3, Cromwell 6, Wollenberg 2, Hadachek 12, Duensing 7, Beneda 14, Cottonmyre 2, Jones 10

The Lady Buffs finish their season in heartbreaking fashion, falling to league-rival Sacred Heart. The fourth quarter scoring says a lot about the way these girls fought, and had a chance to win in the final 30 seconds, but couldn't get off a clean shot. RC finishes 8-13 on the year, and will return all but 3 graduating seniors. Danielle Cromwell, Jessica Wollenberg and Hillary Woods will be greatly missed next year.

Thursday, March 5
1A Girls Substate semifinal in Clay Center

Pike Vly..22..18..13..13...66
Elwood.....7...6...4...8...25

PV: Loring 18, Vignery 2, Mahin 2, Avrie Gritten 2, Audrey Gritten 4, Peters 20, Freed 12, Housholder 5

The Pike Valley girls forced 29 Elwood turnovers, and turned most of those into transition baskets, and cruise into the Substate Championship game Saturday vs Frankfort.

2A Boys Substate semifinal in Belleville

Republic Co..20..18..13...9...60
Minneapolis...2...8..10...9...29

RC: Mutz 2, Grove 13, Engle 8, Kuhlman 16, Wilkinson 2, Roberts 11, Duensing 6, Brown 2

Great intensity from the guys right out of the locker put the young Lions in their place. The Buffs play Sacred Heart for the 3rd straight year in substate. The Buffs won a semifinal match up 2 years ago in Phillipsburg, while the Knights won in Norton in 2008 in the championship game.

RC vs Ell-Saline

The guys let the Cardinals get out to a 6-2 lead in the 1st quarter, but when the dust settled, RC had a 33 point win in the opening round of substate play. RC will host Minneapolis on Thursday night at 7:30 pm. Sacred Heart will play Solomon at 6pm at RCHS.

Rep Co......15...17...19...14...65 (19-2)
Ell-Saline...10....2...10...10...32 (3-18)

RC: Mutz 6, Grove 11, Engle 2, Kuhlman 15, Hedstrom 2, Junker 1, Roberts 18, Damman 2, Brown 6, Kasl 2
