CHERRY- The Ely Timberwolves girls were dialed-in from long range Tuesday night as they used a barrage of threes and good overall shooting to tame the Cherry Tigers 87-44.
The 10-14 Tigers weren’t likely to keep up with the 18-6 Wolves, and that proved be the case as Ely dominated the first half of play 54-24.
“It was a great first half and game of shooting the ball,” said Head Coach Max Gantt. “We made 11 threes on the night. Just a lot of good team offense and solid team defense on the night.”
Grace Latourell led the Wolves with 22 points and three treys. Hannah Penke had 17 points and also had three trifectas. Penke also led the defensive effort with multiple steals and blocks. Zoe Mackenzie had 11 points, including three threes. Sarah Visser had a solid all-around game with two threes and a total of eight points, ten assists and ten rebounds, just missing a triple-double.
Now at 19-6, the Wolves head to South Ridge to close out the regular season on Friday.
The Wolves currently trail Mt. Iron-Buhl and Chisholm in the Quality Ratings Formula rankings used to determine seedings for the sectional tourney. With 17-8 Chisholm on a three-game losing streak and drawing 22-2 Mt. Iron-Buhl for their season finale, it’s possible the Wolves could overtake the Bluestreaks for a No. 2 seed with a win at South Ridge on Friday.
