(Elk Horn, IA) — Exira EHK girls basketball is on a roll right now and on Tuesday night the Spartans knocked off #12 ranked Coon Rapids Bayard 50-34. Jaelynn Petersen had a huge game with 22 points but her Uncle and Head Coach Tom Petersen says she got a large chunk of her points off of offensive rebounds
Jaelynn Petersen has always been a force on the boards — last year she averaged 7.7 a game — those numbers dipped a bit this season to 5.1 before last night but her numbers are improving in all areas says Coach Petersen and that also makes the Spartans leading scorer Taryn Petersen a better player
Exira EHK has now won 7 in a row with their last loss coming nearly three weeks ago to AC/GC but the schedule down the stretch of the regular season doesn’t get any easier says Coach Petersen
After Panorama and Atlantic, Exira EHK will host Paton Churdan and then visit CAM to finish the regular season.
