COMET GIRLS WIN AT SOUTH BEND
The Comets overcame a turnover-plagued performance to defeat the South Bend Indians 38-31 at Koplitz Fieldhouse in South Bend Tuesday night.
"It was really close the whole way," said head coach Bob Torppa. "We seem to have been plagued with turnovers lately. We had 28 in the game tonight. But, when it came right down to it in the fourth quarter, the girls did what they needed to to get the win."
Ashley Ahlstrom, Cheryl Steppe and Erin Saari all had 10 points for the Comets, with Ahlstrom and Steppe combining for 15 rebounds and Saari picking up eight steals and dishing out five assists.
"Ashley Ahlstrom really picked it up in the fourth quarter with her rebounding and scoring underneath," said Torppa, whose Comets improved to 7-4 in Pacific 2B League and 11-6 overall.
Naselle hosts Tacoma Baptist on Friday in the first meeting of the season between the two teams.
