The Northland Lady Eagles hosted the Hill City Hornets Thursday night hoping to stop a three game losing skid. Despite a number of turnovers, the girls were able to hang on for an 11 point victory 65-54.

"It's a 'W' and we will take that right now. We were too sloppy for my liking and we have much to improve on, mainly taking care of the ball, which will come as our young players gain experience. Our defense was aggressive and we were able to force a lot of turnovers," commented Head Coach Jenny Kovall.

Lizzie Procopio led he offense with a career high 24 points and 15 rebounds with four steals on defense. Abby Burch added another 19 points and a dozen boards with five take-aways. Kali Wake added seven points and seven rebounds.

"Lizzie had a great game and Abbi was solid again and showing some good leadership helping bring the ball up after my point guard Chloe (Wolske) was sidelined with an injury early in the second half. We had a great crowd supporting us, the fans were really great, it was fun to see!" Concluded Coach Kovall.[[In-content Ad]]
