Mustangs end season on strong note

A Game: The Mustangs gave visiting O'Gorman a run for their money, but O'G prevailed 26-19. The game was tight for its majority, but Memorial couldn't overcome a strong third quarter from the visitors. The Mustangs played perhaps their best defense of the entire season, limiting O'Gorman to one of their season lows in points. Some outstanding passes kept Memorial within striking distance on the offensive end.
Coach Hoegh says: "I'm really proud of how well our girls played today. Our first game with them was perhaps the low point of our season. They really played for each other tonight. It was fun to watch them compete, and I can't wait to see what they can do in the future."

B Game: Memorial got out to a strong start, but O'Gorman came back in a large way in the second half to notch the victory. Marisa N led the home team in scoring for the game, using her patented bank shot from the right wing for most of her points. However, the visitors were able to extend a lead with some aggressive dribble drives.
Coach Hoegh says: "Just like the A game, our girls played so much better in this meeting than our first. I can look down the line of girls on this team, and it's remarkable how much each has improved their basketball skills. One quality this team never lacked was energy. These girls were always ready to play with emotion."
