Basketball

The Prescott Wildcats knew they had a tough 45 minutes ahead when taking the court against league leaders Ardtornish Allstars, who defeated the legendary Radioactive Cheeseballs in last week’s game.

Building on a strong season and tough training (thanks Coach Hatchard!) the Allstars displayed great teamwork with clever passing and impressive speed throughout the game.

Pocket rocket Sade kept the pressure up with a healthy dose of low level hustle and constantly agitated the bigger guys with loads of energy and tidy shuffles. Great defensive technique and “never say die” attitude!

In the face of rapidly mounting points from the Allstars, Zukiah constantly paved the way for a great passing game across, around over and (possibly?) under the key. Agile at the net with frenetic shooting and aspirational effort, Zukiah was on a mission. He demonstrated great passing with the Lomax Boys, Gem and Scout, showing how far the Wildcats have come this season.

By halftime, the Wildcats were really heating up! A stellar effort from Jonah “The J Man” Hatchard impressed both team and opponents with 3 goals in rapid-fire succession. Jonah’s technique and positive attitude always encourages his team-mates and he really led by example with some nifty moves.

Kaitlyn showed how to keep up the speed and effort all game. Lots of great shots at net, using her height advantage to foil passes and take down Allstar shooters with flair. 

Tanner's commitment and fearless attacks on the ball kept the action moving along and both teams guessing too!

Despite a valiant effort, the Wildcats went down 14 to 36 against the Allstars but learned a lot from going up against a top team.
