The Kewaunee Storm girls' basketball team made a living by turning turnovers into points as they cruised past Gibraltar Thursday night 71-25 in front of its home crowd.
The Storm never allowed the Vikings to get into an offensive groove in the first half, keeping their visitors off the scoreboard for three separate four-minute stints. During those stints, the Storm created easy baskets for Jade Kroll and Brianna Demmin, scoring 14 and 13 points in the first half as the Storm built a 47-14 halftime lead.
The Vikings played better to start the second half as Andie Schar and Emile Glocke traded baskets to start chipping away at the Storm advantage. Kroll and Demmin continued to hit shots, ending their nights with 23 and 19 points. Breanna Riha and Braelyn Chevalier each added 10 points in the Storm victory. In her postgame comments, head coach Lynn Geier commended her top scorers but lauded her other players who helped create the opportunities.
Foul trouble kept Mikala Gorham off the court, as she registered just a single basket in the second half. Schar ended her evening with a team-high 11 points, followed by Glocke's five points and four points from McKailey Reisen. Head coach Evan DeBroux lamented over not having four of his players available to play the whole game but appreciated the effort they continued to show during the game.
