Brooks leads Spartan basketball team in loss to Bulldogs
ST. JOSEPH - Twenty-one of the St. Joseph-Ogden girls basketball team’s 28 points came from seven 3-pointers by three players, but it wasn’t enough to hold off visiting St. Teresa (10-6) in Monday’s 40-28 loss.
Addison Brooks led the Spartans in the nonconference contest, making four 3-pointers for a team-high 12 points.
Hayden Dahl, who hit 3-pointers in the first and fourth quarters, finished with six points. Kayla Osterbur contributed five points and went 1-for-2 from the free-throw line. Katie Ericksen and Timera Blackburn-Kelley rounded out SJO’s scoring with three and two points, respectively.
Lucy Corley stole the show, scoring 19 points for the visiting Bulldogs. Jalie Eller also finished in double figures with 12 points.
Brooks and the Spartans (9-12, 2-3) travel to Bloomington on Thursday to face Illini Prairie leader Central Catholic. The Saints, undefeated in conference play at 6-0, are 17-7.
