GIRLS BASKETBALL: CB West topples North Penn in Continental showdown
amarcus@journalregister.com
It was a post-game speech the North Penn girls basketball team
did not have to hear this season prior to Friday night’s showdown with Central
Bucks West. With first place in the Suburban One Continental Conference on the
line, the Bucks handed the Maidens their first loss of the season.
The 58-47 loss was the first conference loss since the last
time the Maidens faced the Bucks almost 365 days ago.
The Bucks used their quickness to not only get out on offense,
but to bounce between the passing lanes on defense. The Maidens wanted their
senior forward Lauren Crisler to touch the ball in the post as often as
possible, but the Bucks’ double-down defense denied easy buckets.
“The way we were throwing the ball around it did not matter
where we put Lauren,” Maidens coach Maggie deMarteleire said. “We still have a
lot of work to do. But, we would rather have the loss now than later on.”
