LUDINGTON AREA SCHOOLS: 35.00
Fremont 41. Ludington 35
We were able to travel to Ludington and beat Ludington for the first time since 2007. Our girls had lost 23 straight times to Ludington until now. Our girls battled foul trouble with 4 starters having 4 fouls in the 4th, and we overcame a poor shooting night shooting only 27%....but our defense was great. This is a huge win for our team and program, but we understand we are only 5 games into a 12 league season and have a long ways to go. Ludington is the gold standard for girls teams in this area winning the last 5 conference championships, so this puts us in a good position, but we will still take it one game at a time.
It was a pretty close first half as we were tied 17-17 at half. Ludington outscored us 12-6 in the 3rd and built the lead to 8 early 4th...but we have no quit. Jessica Bennett hit three huge 3pt shots with 330, 3 min and 230 to go and Mia Clemence had 8 of her 16 down the stretch. We took the lead with about 230 to go and led the rest of the way. Mia Clemence had 16, Jessica Bennett 15, Taylor DeKuiper 5points. We are 9-2, 5-0 and play at Manistee Thursday
