The girls varsity team played a tough game and were in it to the end, but lost 14-23 to the Billies. The JV girls also won, 38-28.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the girls varsity game, ninth-grader Layla Smith did a great job driving the ball, and senior Quinn Metzger played tall, blocking Pleasant Hill from the hoop.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the boys varsity game, junior Davis Kyser led in points, scoring 16. Junior Anton Zaporozhets was a leader throughout the game, scoring 11 points and had lots of charges, and junior Jacob Janeczko led in rebounds with eight.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&#8220;I thought they played well,&#8221; varsity assistant coach Paul Ossowski. &#8220;I think that we needed to slow it down a little. They were into it and had great energy towards the end, leading to a win.&#8221;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The boys and girls teams travel to Sisters on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2435\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ehsfalconnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AF299BFD-9625-49F6-8928-09303F7CA1C8-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.ehsfalconnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AF299BFD-9625-49F6-8928-09303F7CA1C8-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/www.ehsfalconnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AF299BFD-9625-49F6-8928-09303F7CA1C8-300x200.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/www.ehsfalconnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AF299BFD-9625-49F6-8928-09303F7CA1C8-768x512.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.ehsfalconnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AF299BFD-9625-49F6-8928-09303F7CA1C8-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, http:\/\/www.ehsfalconnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AF299BFD-9625-49F6-8928-09303F7CA1C8-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w, http:\/\/www.ehsfalconnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/AF299BFD-9625-49F6-8928-09303F7CA1C8-570x380.jpeg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption>The Falcons&#8217; Layla Smith, left (#23), looks to shoot with help from Riley Peeler (#23).
