NEW RICHMOND — Shooting comes and goes. Defense can be a constant.
With an off-shooting night, the Clinton-Massie girls were able to defeat New Richmond with a strong defensive effort, 53-33, Monday night in SBAAC American Division basketball.
The Falcons, winners of two straight, are 7-10 overall, 3-5 in the American. New Richmond is 3-15 overall, 0-8 in league play.
“Struggled a bit shooting the ball,” CM coach Hilma Crawford said. “Really picked it up defensively.”
Crawford acknowledged New Richmond is a tough venue and his team “battled hard and played with a lot of energy.” The Falcons won the first meeting at Brian P. Mudd Court 50-26 in December.
Hannah Bowman and Aidan Eades scored 12 points each. Emma Redman came off the CM bench with seven points. She hit a couple big threes in the second period, Crawford said
“She really had a nice game, happy for her,” said Crawford.
Alex Pence also came off the bench with seven points.
Eades had 12 rebounds, five steals and three assists in a substitute role in this one. Bowman grabbed six rebounds and came up with seven steals.
Clinton-Massie was 11 for 23 at the free throw with Pence and McKenna Branham both going 3 for 3.
