One costly quarter dooms Ladycats vs. BCSP

by Eva Gucker

With the exception of the second quarter, Pittsford played a close game with the SCAA I league leaders but lost 58-43. Pittsford had success in the first quarter with their full-court press, but BCSP also showed a press of their own that gave them points. In the second quarter, there was a much greater struggle for Pittsford offensively. Pittsford turnovers became St. Phil points quickly and the Wildcats went from four down after one quarter to a 17-point deficit going into halftime. The Ladycats picked it back up the last half of the game, and didn’t let the Tigers increase their lead, but Pittsford was unable to catch up. “I think that we played well all the way around, but in the second quarter we lacked in defense,” said junior Katelyn Kipfmiller. Katelyn led with 20 points and seven rebounds.
