Lady Celtics Win WCC Championship
FOUR SENIOR LADY CELTICS HONORED AT O'HARA-SAINT PIUS GAME
Seniors Patrice Jackson, Jasmyn Franks, Jackie Kruger, and Paulina Pengelley were given special attention at the basketball game between O'Hara and Saint Pius X on February 20th in which the Celtics beat the Warriors 64-28. It was their last home game.
The game completed O'Hara's undefeated quest for the West Central Conference Championship and was never much in doubt.
Two of the seniors made double figures with ten points apiece: Jackson and Franks. Kruger pitched in 4 and Pengelley had 2.
O'Hara's top point producer was Hailey Houser with 12.
The 22-6 first quarter indicated how unmatched the two teams were and the game ended with the running clock.
However, one of the evening's exciting 0ccurrences was the come-from-behind win by the junior varsity. Trailing most of the entire game, the young ladies rallied in the end in grand fashion. In the fourth quarter, the Celtics were down 46-38 and then scored the next 13 points while holding the Warriors scoreless! Pressure on defense combined with steals, turnovers, and fast breaks made the difference. Top scorers for O'Hara were freshmen Kayla McGee (13) and Julia Runser (9).
