Kendall drops basketball opener

by Warren Kozireski

The Eagles came back from a five-point deficit to tie visiting Alexander 37-37 with 5:20 remaining in the fourth quarter, but managed just one more field goal the rest of the way in a 47-39 loss in their home and season basketball opener.

With Alexander up by two after the first quarter, Kendall came out of the team huddle scoring four of the next five baskets to take a six point lead. Taylor Kingsbury hit a layup and a free throw with captain Ashley Makowski hitting a three-pointer and Nicole Bowe a layup and free throw in the run.

Ashley David hit on a runner to tie the game in the fourth, but Alexander ran off a 12-2 to finish the contest.

Makowski had a team-high 12 points including two three-pointers and a pair of rebounds while David led with six rebounds to go with her eight points. Bowe came off the bench to add seven points and two assists with Jamie Smith adding six rebounds and four points for the Eagles.

Kendall has won seven league titles in girls basketball with the last coming in 2004-05. The team has just three seniors on the roster under first year head coach Jeff Parizek.
