(Audubon) A 50-42 decision over Missouri Valley on Monday gave the Audubon girls basketball team their first win of the season.
The Wheelers got 15 points apiece from Sienna Albertsen and Audrey Jensen. “We probably played our best game offensively. We distributed the ball really well. I thought we passed it much better to the open person who got good looks and they made them. A lot of good things happen in the game of basketball when you are putting the ball through the hoop.”
Coach Darran Miller admits it does a lot for his team mentally after losing their first ten games of the season. “Our girls are happy and excited. It’s good to get that off our backs.”
Friday night on KSOM they’ll face a 6-6 Tri-Center squad that beat them 47-36 earlier this year. “For us transitionally we have to get back on defense. They did a good job of pushing the ball up the court. Offensively we have to have good execution and possessions that result in a bucket, or at least a good look at the basket. We have to be efficient on offense and defensively get back and try to limit them to one shot.”
Audrey Jensen, at 9.5 points per game, is Audubon’s leading scorer. Pregame coverage starts at around 5:45 on 96.5 FM KSOM.
