8th Lady Mules vs. Idalou (11-14-2016)
The eighth grade Lady Mules kept their winning record intact by defeating
the Idalou Lady Cats Monday evening 36-28. A 10-4 scoring run in the opening
quarter gave the Lady Mules they needed for the win.
Idalou reclaimed most of the differential in the second period to trail the
Lady Mules 14-12 at the intermission. The Lady Mules did not suffer a lapse in
scoring in the second half and scurried away from the Lady Cats.
“This was a good win for us,” said Lady Mule coach Jalissa King. “Idalou is
always a strong basketball school, and they played a solid game. It was a close
game the entire time. Anahi Barrera played a strong game with 10 rebounds and
four assists.”
“Jordan Zapata and Grace Leal each had three steals. The girls worked hard
until the very last second.”
Anahi Barrera led the Lady Mules with 16 points and Katelyn Kelly dropped
in six points.
The eighth-grade B-Team extended their winning streak to 2-0 by defeating
the Lady Cats of Idalou 30-22. The Lady Mules jumped out to a 10-3 lead in the
first period and cruised through the next three periods for the win.
Priscilla Medina led the way with 10 points. Anzley Rodriguez and Clara
Vara added six points each.
“This was a tough game for our girls,” continued Coach King. “Last year
they did not see teams as fundamentally sound as Idalou. They worked hard and
played well together.”
The Lady Mules hosted the Littlefield Lady Cats Monday night and will
travel to Slaton to play the Slaton Tigerettes November 28.
