The Women's Basketball team overwhelmed William Penn J.V. on Nov. 30, as they cruised to a victory 71-38.
The Bears started the game off with a lot of intensity and never looked back. Being an offensive threat early, the Bears opened the game with a 17-0 run in the first six minutes of the game.
The defensive pressure was too much for William Penn, who scored their first basket 12 minutes into the game. William Penn who was 2-23 from the field in the first half, were frustrated only shooting eight percent and had trouble getting shots off.
Going into halftime, the Bears were sitting on a comfortable lead 37-9.
In the second half, the Bears continued to dominate on both sides of the floor. "I would say it was a good game," said Skylar Johnson. "Now having a healthy team, our chemistry is better now. Even though we haven't reached our peak, I can still see a huge amount of improvement from everyone."
Leading the way for the Bears were Tia Mays with 14 points, Cassie Nauholz with 12 points, and contributing 10 points a piece were Katlyn Wood and Dani Lang.
The Bears will be in action Dec. 10, home against Marshalltown at 5:30 p.m.
