CAM girls basketball overcomes slow start, foul trouble to beat AC/GC

Sports

January 18th, 2018 by admin

The CAM Cougars girls basketball team had to overcome an early 12 point deficit and foul trouble to get a win in Guthrie Center over the AC/GC Chargers 74-67 on Thursday night. The Chargers came out with a strong attacking effort in the first quarter and pushed out to a 19-10 lead by the end of the first quarter. The Cougars had racked up enough team fouls to put the Chargers into the bonus before the first quarter ended. The lead would grow to as much as 12 for the Chargers early in the second quarter but then the Cougars began to rally back. CAM went on a 17-5 run to tie the game up at 29 and then were able to edge out out to a one point lead at half 35-34. The second half was a different story. The Cougars slowly built their lead and had an advantage as large as 14 points down the stretch. The foul situation flip flopped from the first half with the Cougars getting to the bonus with over 3 minutes left in the third quarter.

Fouls were certainly a big story-line with 53 total called in the game. The two teams combined to shoot 70 free throws in the contest. CAM finished 21-31 from the charity stripe while AC/GC was 22-39 at the line. Five players fouled out of the game. The Cougars lost three players down the stretch Macy Ticknor, Paige McAfee, and Madison Gettler all had to bow out in the fourth quarter. Ticknor was in foul trouble most of the game after picking up 3 early in the game. Sierra O’Brien and Genevieve Hoover fouled out for AC/GC.

The Cougars were led by 29 points from Madison Gettler and 20 from Paige McAfee. The Cougars improved to 11-3 with the win.  The Chargers got 17 points from Jadeyn Carrick and 14 from Sierra O’Brien in the loss. AC/GC falls to 2-14 on the season.
