HEADED HOME: CRESTVIEW LADY REBELS SOFTBALL PREVIEW

COLUMBIANA, OH – Head coach Greg Eskra spoke to us during an inter squad scrimmage yesterday and he discussed who some of the key returning players are for this upcoming season. Some of those key returners are, senior Shianna Mathes who plays 3rd base for the Lady Rebels, junior McKenna Schultz who plays shortstop and pitcher, junior Kayla Deily who plays pitcher and outfielder, Kaedyn Sutton who is a pitcher, and Karsyn Moore the catcher. Coming from 2019 the Lady Rebels were coming off the best season in school history win wise, they were also runner up in district finals that same year. Most of the Lady Rebels play travel ball so they were still getting reps in the summer and Coach was extremely pleased that was the case. Coach Eskra and the Lady Rebels are excited and looking forward to the season this year.

MCDONALD BREAKS AWAY LATE; CRESTVIEW FALLS IN FINALE

COLUMBIANA, OH – As the 2019-2020 girls basketball season wraps up, the final game of the year for the Crestview Lady Rebels was a home, non-conference match up against a very talented McDonald Blue Devils team. The Lady Rebs also closed out their season with senior night to honor Madi Wick and Tanner Hoffer.

The first two quarters saw both teams battle each other with very little separation as Molly Howard’s three first half three pointers gave McDonald a 17-14 lead at the break. The third quarter saw much of the same as McDonald clung to a five point advantage heading into the final quarter. In that fourth quarter however, the Blue Devils sprung to life, as Crestview’s tough defense did all they could to try to contain Howard and Sophia Constantino, but ultimately, the Lady Rebels fell short, 43-29.

The McDonald Blue Devils were led by Molly Howard with 21 points and Sophia Constantino with 13 points.

The Crestview Lady Rebels were led by Krista Perry with 10 points and Addison Bandy with 8 points.

Up next for Crestview (14-8) will be their first game of the 2020 OHSAA state playoffs, as they will welcome the winner of the #5 Rootstown vs #12 Canton Central Catholic game to town on February 22nd.
