Unfortunate Ending

Our freshmen's season ended with Rock Island choosing not to send their frosh down for our scheduled freshmen game on Monday. This marks the third time in the last two years that Rock Island has cancelled their frosh game with us. We found out yesterday morning they would not be coming down. Rocky had a sophomore and varsity game with East Peoria last night also. Evidently they want to play some of their freshmen on the soph and on the frosh level, so they begged out of our frosh game.

Unfortunately for Coach Barshinger and for our freshmen girls, this means they finish the season with two less games than we could have played. As usual, Coach Barshinger does a great job helping the freshmen transition into high school basketball. This group had a nice season and we look forward to watching them work, improve and develop over the next three years.

Next year we will make some scheduling adjustments to avoid this problem.
