The Underwood girls’ basketball team played superb defense on Monday as they defeated the Rothsay Tigers, 70-28, in a Little Eight Conference contest in Underwood.  The Rockets led 37-18 at the half. 

 

“I was happy how we put a whole game together, defensively,” commented Head Coach Brian Hovland of the Rockets.  “Rothsay has some girls that can shoot the ball.  We put together our best two halves on the defensive end and Trinity Baker (20 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists) had a really nice game.”

Liz Lukken (15 points, 5 assists, 6 rebounds, 4 assists), Mily Albjerg (13 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists) and Kallyn Grove (13 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists) all turned in great performances on the court.

Rothsay stats will be added to the story once they are received.

Underwood (4-1) has another home game on Friday when they host Parkers Prairie.

Rothsay (4-1) lost for the first time in five games.  They have back-to-back home games on Thursday, against Ada-Borup/West, and Friday, against Clinton-Graceville-Beardsley.
