The Rothsay girls’ basketball team recorded a 64-61 home court victory over New York Mills on Monday night.  The Eagles led 33-27 at the half, but Rothsay outscored the visitors 37-28 over the final 18 minutes.

Jayna Gronewold led the home team with 33 points, 5 rebounds, 6 steals and 6 assists.  Jenna Fabre added 13 points and Summer Wigdahl contributed 8 points.

“I enjoyed watching the girls attack the zone and get layups rather than settle for perimeter shots,” commented Rothsay Head Coach Anita Heier.  “We gave up 22 offensive rebounds in the first half so we challenged the girls at half time and they responded in the second half.  This is a nice win moving towards the playoffs.”

Rothsay (8-16) will end their regular season at home Tuesday night against Bertha-Hewitt.
