Megan Powell, Adrianna Ivanovic and Shelby Goble played last night along with three MIB Rangers in the Kernz & Kompany All Star Game at Duluth Denfeld last night....their All Area team was ahead of the Duluth Area team at the half by 9 but fell 4 points short in the end with the final score being 67-63. So it was a pretty good game...
Andi was #32, Megan #57 and Shelby #45.
The girls really enjoyed their playing time and visiting time with the Ranger girls and in my opinion, those six were the best players on the floor! I kept wishing the coach would have put all Huskies and all Rangers in, but he had to keep the playing time fair I guess.....that's all you had to do Buffeta and the game was yours! haha
Before the game began, they had a free throw shooting competition and 3 point shooting competition. Shelby was 8/10 for free throws and took third and also took third in the 3 point contest. I can't remember what she had for points in that contest and I believe Jessica Vork of Cloquet won the 3 point contest. Another girl from the Duluth Area team went 10/10 in free throws and took first in that contest.
At the end of the contest the media selected the MVP player of the game and for the first time in the history of their all star games, it went to a player on the losing team, and that was to Bigfork's Shelby Goble! She ended up with 20 points and had three And/1's....I think she had one 3 on the night but made quite a few free throws also. Taking the MVP award was a first in Shelby's basketball career so it was fun for us to see. Her Grandma Max and Dad and I were at the game with her..Adrianna also rode with us as her mom could not get off of work when the game was rescheduled....they were pretty bummed about that. Andi and Megan both had 7 points for the night so the Bigfork girls had 34 points out of the 63...again, pretty impressive!
I thought the Bigfork girls represented their school and team VERY well and it was fun seeing them play together one last time....you could definately see the chemistry when they were in the game together. :)
Here are a few pictures from last night...I did not take many as I just enjoyed the game. I will take quite a few more tonight at the Coca-Cola All Star game in Virginia....that game will take place at 6:00 for the girls and 8:00 for the boys.
