On Friday, January 5th, the JV Girls Basketball team visited host Holly, and the Eagles were just too much for the home team, coming away with a 53-12 win.

After an uneven effort on Wednesday vs. Pinckney the Eagles came out focused, jumping on the Bronchos early for a 21-4 lead after the first quarter.  A suffocating full court man press fueled the first quarter outburst.  The Eagles continued their high level of play in the second and third quarters behind an aggressive half court man defense.  With the game out of reach, the Eagles worked on new offensive concepts in the fourth quarter. 

Freshman Alyssa Goldman led Lakeland with 10 points.  Freshman Melina Wing and sophomore Aly Dahm contributed 8 each.  All Eagles scored including Matilda Herron notching her first high school points.  Stats of interest – Lakeland scored 24 field goals and went 5/8 from the FT line (63%).

Lakeland improves to 5-2. (Three game winning streak)
