Lady Norsemen Fall to Wheaton Academy

Date: November 18th
Opponent: Wheaton Academy
Result: Lost 43-31

The Lady Norsemen went into the game knowing that it was going to be a very tough task to win. Wheaton Academy is a very fast team and they showed that in the beginning when they pressed and got some fast break lay-ups. The Lady Norsemen stayed close throughout as they only trailed 20-11 at halftime. After the third quarter the Lady Warriors of Wheaton Academy extended their lead to 33-18. But the Lady Norsemen would eventually get within 10 points, but that was as close as they got. The Lady Norsemen struggled to find shots as they only attempted 29 for the entire game. Lauren McNanna led the team with 21 points, Tara Bernard and Katie Larson added 6 and 4 points respectively.
