Sweet Home 17
Junction City defeated Sweet
Home 63-43 in girls basketball
Friday night at Junction City.
"We were really proud of
them," Coach Robby Robinson
said of his team. "They played
hard. They defended hard."
Junction City has been racking
up more than 60 points per game,
Robinson said.
It's also the second-lowest
scoring opponent for the Huskies
this season. Hidden Valley scored
43.
But the Huskies couldn't turn
it around on the other end.
"We just couldn't buy a
basket," Robinson said. Shooting
was probably 15 percent.
The girls limited Junction
City's possessions, played good
defense and rebounded better, he
said, but they turned the ball over
29 times.
"I think our energy was good,"
Robinson said.

the first quarter, Robinson said.
After that, the Huskies and La Pine

of ways," Robinson said. Harlee
