Girls: Bench sparks rally from slow start Boys: Hornets kept at bay in physical game Photos by Photos by Brittlyn Rose Photography Grant 47 Central Montcalm 30 The Tigers stumbled out of the starting blocks with some ice cold shooting that created a collective angst among the fans in the home section. When the first ended the hosts were staring at a 10-1 deficit. The second also saw a slow start but the talent on the Tiger team began to rise to the surface. Coach Delamater: “ We couldn’t buy a shot. We went a couple minutes into the second before we got it going and ended up with 19 in the quarter. Jocelyn Kruithoff and Jayci Hance were huge for us off the bench tonight. Their tenacity on defense is what got us going in the first half. We were much more balanced in the second half. Overall it was a great team win. Ashbaugh played a great all-around game.” Julie Ashbaugh paced the Tiger scoring with an even dozen points. Hance hit for 9 and Jaycee Rider fired in 8 while Jocelyn Kruithof and Chloee Chase knocked down 7 apiece. Grant 55 Central Montcalm 38
