In an exciting contest, the junior high Lady Falcons fell to Olfen by a final of 25-24. It was a close game throughout, with the Lady Falcons holding on to a 14-13 halftime lead. At the end of the third quarter, Veribest had extended the lead to 20-16. Jaden Sturm scored 8 points for the contest, as did Jessie Padilla, but it wasn't enough. Unable to handle a press, the Lady Falcons relinquished the lead in the final minute of the contest, and lost by a single point. The coaches were proud of the effort of the girls who will now face Paint Rock in Paint Rock.
Meanwhile, the junior high boys continued their winning ways by dismantling an over matched Olfen 38-20. The Falcons dominated play from the opening possession, building a 17-0 lead at the end of the first quarter. Led by the play of Adolfo Lara, who scored 15 points on the night, and the inside presence of Cody Hurt, who added twelve points, the Falcons extended the lead to over 20 points entering the fourth quarter. All the Falcons contributed to win, which pushes the Veribest record to 6-0.
Good job to both teams and good luck against Paint Rock!
