SHERBURNE- On senior night, this past Friday, the lady Marauders upended the Eagles from New York Mills by a score of 53-28.

Sherburne-Earlville practically blew their opposition off the court by scoring 17 points in the first quarter, all while holding the Eagles to six points in the opening quarter. In fact, the rolling Marauder offense matched the Eagles scoring output for the half in just the first quarter.

Despite their opening dominance, S-E would not see another dominating quarter until the third period of play as they equaled the Eagles in offensive production as both teams scored 11 points in the second quarter of action.

It would be the stellar play of McKenzie Keator who tried to guide the Eagles to a more manageable game when she scored seven of her nine points in the second period. As the final buzzer of the first half sounded, Sherburne-Earlville maintained a 28-17 lead.

What followed in the second half of action once again showed the dynamic offense and defense of the Marauders scoring 15 points in the third quarter, while the defensive effort proved helpful by once again keeping the Eagles from reaching double-digit scoring in a quarter.
