The JV Lady Blue Streaks basketball team had a tough game against the Riverside Beavers on Wednesday. With a 19-38 score, the Lady Blue Streaks never gave up. They continued to work their hardest with their dedication as an individual and a team. By halftime, the score was 13-14 Riverside. 

Though close at the half, we couldn't match Riverside's intensity in the third quarter. Riverside stepped up their game and added 24 points in the second half. 

Sydney Guyer, Jessica Schafer, and Ashlee Hathaway were their top performers for this game, passing to each other and continuously talking on the court. Sydney Guyer during third quarter, was wrestling for the ball and was hit in the head. Even though she got hurt, she still went in after being taken off the court. 

Parents and fans are always looking forward to seeing them try their hardest, even with the blood, sweat, and tears after every practice, game or scrimmage. They look forward to seeing how much they have progressed each game they play. 

This game was important because they lost last season and wanted to win this one. It was a conference game and with their hard work, they still ended up with a tough loss. Coaches want to see them progress as not only an individual, but also as a team. With all of the fans', coaches', and Varsity team members' support, JV has a lot ahead of them. Our team’s record is 2-10, but with all their hard work, and many other games to come, they will have confidence and dedication to get to where they want to be as a team.
