After coming off an exciting victory against Staples High
School that qualified the Girls Varsity Basketball team for states, the Blue
Wave suffered a tough loss against Danbury on Tuesday, February 11th.
With a final score of 28-45, it is evident that Danbury was
certainly strong competition for the team. The girls gave it everything they
had, and unfortunately could not come out on top.
“All of our effort
was there. Our shots just weren’t falling and there’s nothing you can do about
that except keep shooting and working for good passes,” junior Avery Maley
said. The team did just that, with solid passing, shooting, and defense across
the board.
Although the team could not celebrate a victory, they all
happily celebrated Senior Day for the team’s two senior captains: Emily Stein and
Kelly Karczewski.
Stein and Karczewski have been incredible leaders all
throughout the season, on and off the court. The team will most definitely miss
their strength, leadership, and athletic ability when next winter rolls around.
For now the team must focus on the remainder of their season
and the two senior captains must work to lead their team to success in their
final games as Blue Wave basketball players.
Come support the Girls Varsity Basketball team in their next
game against rival New Canaan on Thursday, February 13th at New Canaan High
School.
The underclassmen rewarded their outstanding senior captains, Karczewski and Stein, with flowers after a game well played. |
