A late run by Central Elkader (6-5, 4-4 UIC) was enough for the Warriors to pick up a victory Tuesday night in Elkader, defeating the South Winn girls’ basketball team (4-6, 3-5 UIC) 47-40.
It was a close first half, with South Winn trailing 17-8 after the first quarter. South Winn came back to within two at the half 23-21 in the second period. The two Warrior squads combined for 17 points in the third with South Winn pulling within one 31-30. Central came out strong in the final eight minutes to outscore the visitors 16-10 to take the win.
We started slow and got down by more then 10 in the first quarter but fought back,” said coach Mike Gehling. “Central seemed to always hit a big shot when we would get the game close. We did some good things at times but we weren’t able to put it all together for the whole game. We have to just keep working on improving everyday.”
Individual stats were unavailable at press time.
