The Lady Broncos fought hard at home against Vega last Tuesday night, but fell short in the overtime period losing 57-63.
Clarendon led through three periods of play, but the Lady Longhorns worked their way back into the game to send the game to overtime at 50-50 at the end of regulation. “It was a tough loss in overtime,” head coach Kalen Grahn said.
“We lost Allyson (Grahn) in the Championship game of the Claude tournament due to a sprained ankle, so that forced some of the other girls into different roles. They played a very good game and Taylor Gaines played a great game for us running the offense and being our floor general.” Grahn said Taylor DeGrate led the Lady Broncos with 23 and Hannah Howard went six for six from the free throw line.Carlee Johnson had a huge night for the Lady Broncos scoring 14 points and attacking the rim.
“We need more balanced scoring to win down the road,” Grahn said. “We hope to see Vega again; they are a good, solid club and are very well coached.”
The Lady Broncos will participate in the Canadian Tournament over the holidays and travel to Fritch January 2.
