Lady Saints Fizzle Late in Loss at Garden City

This one stings. Not just losing a Jayhawk West basketball game to fall to 4-3 in the conference and in a tie for fourth with Barton. Not just losing to Garden City for the first time since 2003 and seeing an impressive 15 game steak against the Lady Busters go by the boards. But it was the way Seward lost 68-67 Wednesday night at the Perryman Center in Garden City. Seward led 67-60 with 4:30 to play, but never scored again in the loss. Seward trailed 43-39 at halftime. Garden City made six of eleven three pointers in the win. Ashlynn Knoll scored 19 points while Mariah Lee scored 18 in the loss. Hannah Rotolo returned to the Seward lineup and scored eight points with eight steals. The Lady Busters are 2-5 in the Jayhawk West and 12-9 overall. Seward is 14-7 overall and 4-3 in the Jayhawk West with first place Butler coming to Liberal Saturday night for a 6 p.m. game on B107.5 and kscbnews.net.
