Both the AHSTW Lady Vikes and Riverside Bulldogs had a tough time getting comfortable on the offensive end of the floor and, but the Lady Vikes made just enough baskets to get the 30-17-win Thursday night.

The game was a very low scoring affair, especially in the first half as AHSTW led 10-7 at the break. The Lady Vikes used a 9-2 run to secure their lead in the third quarter. They then scored a quick two shots to start the fourth quarter to make it tough on the Bulldogs.

Riverside’s offense had no response in the second half as they only managed to score 10 points in the last 16 minutes.

While the win was not pretty for AHSTW Head Coach Jason McCall he was proud of the way his team limited the Bulldogs scoring.

The Lady Vikes were led by 8 points from Ella Langer and 7 from Delaney Goshorn. AHSTW improves to 11-6 and stay on the road to face Treynor Friday evening.

To secure more wins throughout the remainder of the year, Coach McCall is going to have his team focus on improving their offense.

Riverside was led by 7 points from Madison Kelley. Riverside’s record drops to 9-9 and they travel to face Tri-Center on Friday.
