Your Jr Girls basketball team played last night here at ELC against our rivals the Centennial Cougars. It was a very chippy and physical game with both teams racking up the fouls. Your cyclones were down at half 14-11 before the flurry of 3s rain down and ELC took the lead. It came down to the final seconds where the Girls came through with clutch defense to win 27-25. The team is back in action again tonight at home against sir winston, come cheer them on!
