Game Notes
WOMEN'S BASKETBALL
Ventura 76, Cuesta 39
Notes- The Cougars returned star Forward Lauren Maurer after a 17-game layoff and what was planned to be a few spare minutes to work her back slowly became a strong second half. The Cougars host undefeated #1 Ventura, who beat them by 78 points on January 7th, and were determined to hold back the juggernaut on their home floor. Maurer scored two free throws in just a few minutes of action, but after Center Valerie Gee and Forward Kayla Cribbs both fouled out Coach Ed Musolff was forced to increase her minutes. Maurer kicked back into her game that saw her score 20 points in each of her last two games before breaking her foot. She scored 11 second half points and ended the game second behind Guard Katrina Torres in scoring, 14 and 13 points respectively. Even with Maurer the Cougars were unable to catch the Pirates, however they lost by a relatively, from the previous game, low score of 76-39. The Cougars are now 6-19 overall and 1-6 in the WSC.
Next- Cuesta will play at Moorpark on Wednesday (2.4.09)
Pierce 88, Cuesta 56
Notes- The Cuesta women's basketball had its best offensive night of 2009 as they scored over 50 points for the first time in seven games. Sadly, LA Pierce netted 88 points to run away with victory on the Cougars home floor. Power Forward Kayla Cribbs scored a season-high 20 points to lead Cuesta and also pulled down a team-high nine rebounds. The Cougars are now 6-18 on the year and 1-5 after the first round of Western State Conference play.
Next- Cuesta will host undefeated #1 Ventura at 7Pm this Saturday.
