perserverance pays off

What in November looked like a lost cause turned out to be a huge encouragement to the Rosehill community last night. With just six available players, and one very patient coach, the Rosehill girls basketball team defeated the Woodlands Christian Academy last night. Led by a team high 13 points from sophomore Hannah Hewton, the Lady Eagles did themselves and their school proud by winning a district game with 4 sophomores, one freshman and one lone senior. The senior, Beth Briner played her final home game of her career, and amid the cheers of the Rosehill crowd played hard despite a severly injured leg. If all the athletes at Rosehill played with as much heart as Beth all of our programs would shine.
Sophomores Casey Sullivan, Gillian Harris,and Amanda Cooper played great defense and as usual freshman Kaitlyn Danielson was a presence in the paint.
Coach Krantz has served the girls well with his consistent patient teaching, and upbeat approach to basketball. Our girls program is in great hands as long as Coach Krantz is involved.
Praises are due to our girls basketball team for their willingness to stick with the program and work hard. They will only get better, and will soon be a team to deal with in TAPPS 2A
