Ladycats fall to a 0-2 after loss to C-F

by Eva Gucker

Another upsetting loss for the Wildcats leaves them 0-2 after playing Camden-Frontier and losing 73-38 on December 5. The excitement of a Friday night home game against a rival did not boost the girls’ performance from the beginning, with Camden going on a 20-11 run in the first quarter. The ladies cut the lead to five at one point, but made shots by the opponent and costly turnovers by Pittsford made a big deficit early in the game. Even with these problems the girls made improvement in the second half with fewer turnovers and more defensive stops, but this was not enough to catch the Ladycats up. Senior Marisa Hamilton led the team with 17 points. Even with this big loss, the girls made some improvements from their last game in the areas of rebounding and free throw percentage.
