On Thursday night the OPH girls basketball team took on Cumberland on their home court in Palestine. There was no JV game. Tip-off for varsity was at 6:00, but the crowd never got very big unfortunately. Katie Draper, Shara Coffman, Krescene Holscher, Lyssa Nave, and Madison McIntosh started the game out for OPH. The first half was kind of rough, they team didn’t play to their full potential. The score at halftime was 24-29. After some wise words by Ms. Cutright and good energy from Mr. Will they came out after half and started playing much better. Their defense was pretty solid. After a hard fought game, with constant back and fourth lead changes, the final score was 39-40. Everyone should be proud of the girls though for a great game, they just came up a little short. Mr Will said they definitely grew as a team and had some tough fouls towards the end that lost them the game.
