LADY SPARTANS FALL TO INDIAN CREEK IN HOLIDAY HOOPLA

NORTH CANTON, OH- The Boardman Lady Spartans fell to a solid Indian Creek Redskins team on Sunday afternoon 50-40 at Walsh University’s Holiday Hoopla.

Boardman led 12-10 after the first quarter but Creek dominated the second with an 18-9 quarter to lead 28-21 at the half. Boardman cut the lead to 46-40 with about 2 minutes to go but missed several free throws and was forced to foul and Indian Creek capitalized at the line to put the game away.

The loss drops Boardman’s record to 0-2 on the young season. The Maroon and White were led by Juniors, Maria Torres (12 points, 7 rebounds, 2 steals) and Emma Tokarsky (12 points, 6 rebounds and 3 steals). Raegan Burkey had 6 points, 2 rebounds, 6 assists, and 2 steals. Katie Stamp added 5 points, 5 rebounds and 3 steals as she was limited by foul trouble. Rounding at the scoring were Jenna Olexa with a triple and Gia Triveri with 2.

Boardman looks to get their first win on the season Wednesday at home versus rival Cardinal Mooney.  That game can be seen on YSN.
