| Neil Velandria
Win: 44 - 30
The season is coming to an end, so these next games are so important to try to make VISAA playoffs. The Lady Wolves won the jump ball and the first point of the game was a 3 pointer by Maggie Cook.
Throughout the game, the Lady Wolves did a good job of making the extra pass and playing unselfishly. Not everything was good though, as a lot of Lady Wolves shots from the outside were not falling. The Lady Wolves were able overcome that by their pressure defense and making the important shots. The Lady Wolves won by a score of 44 to 30. - Beryll Ntiako

Lose: 29 - 68
The Lady Wolves didn't have the energy they had the night before and the Seton Conquistadors came ready to play. The Lady Wolves didn't have an answer for Seton's fast breaks and 3pt shooting. They tried to change the momentum but could never sustain it long enough to make serious comeback. The Lady Wolves get another chance at Seton on Monday and no doubt they will bring the energy & effort they usually do.

The game started off great. Both teams were making shots and at one point we were ahead of STAB. STAB started draining deep 3s even though we covered them really well, but they were just simply more skillful.
Our starters & bench players were giving it their heart and fighting back. This game was a great learning lesson for the team. They played against D1 and top prospect type players at STAB, yet we never backed down. These players are going to take this lesson into their next practice to work harder on the next game and make sure they win! - Jade Gayle

In a VCAC matchup between our Lady Wolves and Trinity Christian Gryphons, we prevailed 48 to 38. The Lady Wolves led throughout the game but never fully got their rhythm. It was the consistent pressure by the Lady Wolves that kept Trinity Christian from mounting a full comeback.

Coming back from a great win last Friday, the Lady Wolves were riding a wave with one word ringing through their heads, "Believe." And believe they did!

Two losses back-to-back typically would damage a team's morale. Luckily, the Lady Wolves are not a typical team. The game was close from the start, but a spark of energy in the second quarter from Jamie Velandria and the bench gave the team the tools that would keep them ahead, even if just by a point or two. By the end of the 4th quarter the Lady Wolves were up 40-37, but a clutch 3 from the other side forced overtime. The Lady Wolves sadly could not keep their lead, but their efforts as well as energy from the bench kept them in the game till the end. - Beryll Ntiako

A nail bitter from start to finish. Neither team was able to hold a lead for more than 15 seconds and by halftime the score was still tied. Fouls very late in the game gave Flint Hill the extra point they needed to win the game. Nevertheless, the Lady Wolves took this as a lesson and are prepared for the next game.
