8th Grade Girls Going Strong

Macey Engel, Papillion Jr. High


 PAPILLION- Basketball season has started at full tilt. Teams try to master all of the skills necessary for beating the best. With only two weeks for the 8th grade girl’s basketball team to brush up on their skills, the Titans have done an excellent job. The first game was last Tuesday an away game against Belleview’s Logan. The game seemed out of the A team’s class when Logan jumped to an 8-2 lead in the first two minutes. In the second quarter, the A seemed to come alive and took the lead and never gave it back. Both A and B team won easily. Mission was the next opponent, only two days later. Mission was harder competition, but the Titan A team handled it very well in front of their home crowd winning without worry. The Titan B team, however, could never get ahead by more than two points. In the end, Mission proved too great of a challenge for the Titans, winning by single digits.
