The Wellsboro Middle School girls basketball game had their seven game win streak snapped last night as they fell to rival Mansfield, 23-20. Sarah Ingerick led the team with 9 points and Jenny Young and Alexa Singer added 4 each.
"Our girls played hard and it was a very physical game," said head coach Darrell Morris. "We had a scoring drought and only scored 8 points through the end of the 3rd. We never quit and fought all the way to the end cutting the lead to 3 points in the final 10 seconds, but we missed too many layups and open shots.
"We have to give Manfield credit, they came ready to play and deserved to win," continued Morris.
In the B-Team game, the Hornets shout out Mansfield, 20-0. The team will be back in action on Thursday, March 15, as they travel to Williamson.
