A Good Start to the Girls High School Basketball Season

By: Taylor Parish

It’s been a good start to the season for the Interstate 35 girl’s high school basketball team. They are beginning the season with a 2-1 record. They won their first game against Melcher-Dallas on November 21, 45-41. It was an intense game. It looked like the Roadrunners were taking control, but the Saints made a comeback in the second half. Interstate kept it together and played strong to come out on top.

On Tuesday November 22, the Roadrunners traveled to Earlham. It was a tough start with one starter receiving three fouls in the first quarter and eventually she fouled out along with another starter fouling out late in the game. The Cardinals never stopped and the Roadrunners could not catch up. They eventually lost 50 – 73.

The Chariton Chargers made their way to Interstate 35 on Tuesday November 29, for the Roadrunners first game at home. The Roadrunners took a commanding 14-3 lead in the first quarter. The Chargers never gave up and fought back within single digits of the Roadrunners. Interstate took the lead and never gave it back, winning 54 – 49.
