The Randolph Lady Cardinals defeated the Huskies of West Holt to earn 3^rd place in the conference tourney by the score of 50-42. We played West Holt earlier in the season and were defeated by 8 points. We changed up our game plan somewhat and played better overall. It was a big week for us and our fans to make 3 big trips to West Holt. I am proud of how the girls held up mentally and physically. Leading the way offensively for the Lady Cardinals as Michaela Strathman with 14 points and 9 rebounds and Kirsten Fink with 12 points and 14 rebounds, 4 steals and 8 blocks. She was a real force in the middle of the lane. Emily Schnoor dished out 5 assists. Brenna Thies and Danielle Backer did an outstanding job on a special defensive assignment. Haley Schnoor canned a long range 3 pointer with 3 minutes left in the game to give the Cardinals an extended lead to help them to victory. As a team, we again shot well from the line by converting 15-18.
