JV - Corbin Turner. In the three JV games over the weekend played well and averaged close to double-digits.
Varsity against Holly & Walsenburg- Emma Netherton stepped up to have two monster games this past weekend. She earned a double-double vs Holly with 12 points and 10 RBs. During the Walsenburg game, Emma filled a different role, practicing her full court defense to help prepare for the rest of the season.
Ava LaBarge was selected for two strong games the past week. Against RF she worked through their pressure, while against SCA she improved her attack skills. She leads the team in assists and is the second best rebounder. Her leadership and intensity help the Trojans when we need it the most.
