At halftime, we were ahead for the very first time of the season-- by one point! The girls came out after the half and continued to play hard. Emmy played great defense and did a generally good job of running the offense. (Okay, a very good job with the exception of a couple of ill-advised passes :) !) With only 10 seconds left, Gallia Academy had the ball and drove into their part of the court. Emmy STOLE the ball (her second steal of the game-- and the first two steals of the entire season!), dribbled back to her end of the court, and prepared to shoot when a girl from Gallia fouled her. Even though the ref didn't call the foul, the game saving steal enabled Athens to run out the clock and come off with their first win of the season!! The girls were SOOOOOO excited!!
Emmy, Audrey, Divya, Sidney, Haley, and J'lana celebrate after the game!!
Final score: AMS-- 29, Gallia Academy-- 28!!
