We played a much better second half. We were more aggressive on both ends of the floor and executed much better on offense. We had a couple really good runs to close the gap, but just couldn't get all the way back and they did a good job of making free throws late in the game."

It wasn't pretty tonight, but we found a way to win."

The girls had special jerseys to wear with the name of a loved one they were playing in honor or in memory of.

Fremont closed the gap to 24-20 at the end of the third but never were able to tie the game until the final minute and a half at 28-28.

I'm really proud of their perseverance tonight."

Fremont lost to Ravenna last night in a low scoring game. Both teams struggled to score throughout the game. The score was tied at 5 after the first quarter. Ravenna led 16-13 at the half, 25-20 after three quarters, and won by a final score of 32-26. Ravenna spent part of the third quarter and all of the fourth quarter in a 4-corners offense that took a lot of time off the clock and kept the ball out of Fremont's hands.  Fremont was led by Jessica Bennett with 10 points and Khaila Noordyk with 8. Ravenna was led by Postema's 9 points and Emma Gillard's 8. Coach Zerlaut -- "We got a lot of good shots tonight, they just didn't fall. Credit Ravenna with going to the four corners and taking a lot of time off the clock. Our girls worked hard on defense against that, and got some steals, but they didn't turn into points often enough and they were able to whittle the clock away."

They are a good basketball team that has been winning a lot of games, and by big margins. We competed well, but we struggled to put the ball in the basket which ultimately prevented us from getting back in the game."

We need to get better offensively in order to better compete against really good teams."
