Varsity Girls Basketball (Mr. Isbister)
The Lakers Sr. Basketball team got back into action this past week with the Foothills Invitational Tournament in Okotoks. In their first game, they took on Joanne Cardinal Schubert out of Calgary. Although they battled early on and went into halftime only down by 3, JCS turned out to be too big and athletic for the Lakers to handle. They dropped their first game 84-55. Kiah Isbister was named MVP of the game with 15 points. In their next game, the girls matched up against Holy Trinity from Edmonton. The Lakers came out strong against Holy Trinity and we’re able to come away with a 64-50 win. Emma Tanner had a fantastic game and was named MVP of the game. In the consolation final, the Lakers took on Chinook High School from Lethbridge. Although the contest was tight throughout the first 3 quarters, the Lakers were not able to hold on for the victory. Alysha Matchett had a very strong game off the bench and was chosen as MVP for the game. Abby Farrell and Finley Dosenberger had strong performances all weekend. The girls team is starting to finally get healthy and look to make a strong push in Divisionals and Zones. Senior night will be Feb 4 at home where we send off our 4 Seniors in their last home game of the season
