In looking at today’s
@NEPSAC
Super Sunday schedule, just realizing that all 4 of our losses came to teams playing in championship games today.
We have a chance to avenge 1 of those losses. Brooks beat us by 15 two months ago. Different team. Different day. Let’s get it.
We won our first
@NEPSAC
championship 62-53 over a really good Brooks team. Brielle Renwick led a balanced attack with 17 points, while Mackenzie Nelson and Ava Sollenne (five threes) added 16 each. We finish 26-2 on the season. Awesome season.
