Brashear Drops a Pair at Schuyler County Friday

Both Tiger teams have poor second halves allowing Schuyler to pull away.

The Brashear Lady Tigers hoped their good fortune against class 2 teams Milan and Knox County would extend to their game against class 2 neighbor Schuyler County. For the first quarter and a half, things looked like they were going Brashear's way with the Lady Tigers holding a 22-15 lead. Then the Lady Tigers shooting when ice-cold allowing Schuyler to make a 7-0 run tying the game 22-22 at half-time. Continued poor shooting and foul trouble by Brashear in the second half sealed the deal for Schuyler's 1st win of the season. The final score was 55-38. Brashear's scoring was paced by Kimberly Elsea and Hailee Kelsey with 14 and 13 points respectively. ChaRae Cole had 4 points, Chelsey Collop had 3, and Jessi Hill and Christina Scudder scored 2 points each. For Schuyler, Nicole Winkler and Tahnee Poe each scored 13. Tara Verkuilen added 7, Tensel Sandker had 6, Allison Burt had 5, Jackie Roberts and Natalie Sayre each had 4, Kanada Nelson scored 2 and Whitney Sayre had 1 point.

The boy's game seemed to follow the same pattern as the girls contest with the Tigers staying close in the first half, but the Rams were able to pull away in the second half. Brashear was still within 5, 29-24 at half-time before Scott Beeler and Jacob Winkler teamed up for 14 third quarter points dashing any hopes of Brashear climbing back into the game. Schuyler took the contest by a final score of 71-37. Kale Watson led Brashear with 14 points, followed by Ryan Ferdig with 7, Jacob Shipman with 6, Justin Hazen with 5, Tyler Killen and Trae Treasure with 2 each and Kiley Watson with 1 point. Jacob Fowler led the scoring for the Rams with 22, Jacob Winkler had 11, Logan Shively had 9, Scott Beeler had 8, Chris Oliver and Tyler Green each had 6, Chris Calhoun had 5, Jordan Neagle had 4, and Eric Duncan had 1 point.
