Lady Norsemen Advance to Championship Game

Date: 12/29/08
Location: Lisle Tourney vs. St. Edwards
Result: Won 66-60

Laura Johnson led the way with 26 points while Lauren McNanna added 17 points. Sam Akre also added 8 points in the big victory. The Lady Norsemen trailed 31-24 at halftime, but came out focused in the second half. The Lady Norsemen's press bothered St. Edwards as they started to commit turnovers. Newark's defense really buckled down late in the game to secure the six point victory. Their next game is tonight, December 30 at Lisle vs. Coal City at 8 pm for the championship.
