A few years back there was a movie called Coyote Ugly. PCG might want to consider
changing their names to the Coyotes. It wasn't pretty. It was gritty. PCG took advantage of the free throw line and rallied from six down in the second half in a grinder in the final contest of the day. This game was contested every step of the way and the PCG defense stepped up again.
In many ways it was the most compelling game of the night. The game pivoted on a drive by PCG's Sarah Nohrenberg with 2:10 left and LN holding a precarious 37-36 lead. She was fouled by Cassie Rochel, the 6-4 center for LN who picked up foul #5. Nohrenberg missed both tosses, but LN was now down to back up posts as starter Ashley Prather fouled out earlier. Kaiya Sygulla grabbed the rebound for LN and they worked the ball up court. Five times they had to pass the ball in on that possession as PCG got their hands on balls and deflected passes. Finally the pressure worked and Jackie Voigt stole an in bounds pass with 1:19. Ten seconds later PCG took their first lead of the second half since the 16:54 mark (PCG led at half 21-18) as Nohrenberg again drove, this time baseline, and was fouled for &1 chance. She missed the toss again. LN boarded, but a turnover gave the ball back to PCG with 29.4 ticks left. Samantha Hildebrandt was fouled and she made the front end. Sygulla again grabbed the second and ws fouled with 7.9 seconds left and the score 39-37. She missed the front end and K
atya Leick snatched the rebound. She was immediately fouled and converted both for the final margin. A desperation 3 by Sygulla fell into the arms of Voigt and PCG will play Eastview on Friday. It will be a rematch of the overtime game won by Eastview in December.
It should be noted that Rachel Banham of Lakeville North did not play due to a school policy situation. It was not due to basketball or illness. From reports I received from multiple parties there are odd circumstances around the event. LN's team did rise to the challenge. With the exception of Rochel, most of the line up is gnat like and they did an excellent job of keeping bigger PCG off balance.
