The Sturgis girls basketball team was defeated 65-32 in Monday’s trip to Niles Brandywine.
“We had a tough time getting the ball inbounds against Brandywine’s pressure tonight,” said Trojans coach Jeremy Bucklin. “When we did get it in, we broke the pressure easily and got good looks at the basket.”
Sturgis falls to 2-13 with the non-conference loss, while the Bobcats are an impressive 11-1.
“Just had too many turnovers,” added Bucklin. “Girls battled all night. Give Brandywine a lot of credit, they are a good team. We are still getting better every day.”
Sturgis travels to Plainwell Friday and Brandywine hosts Buchanan Thursday.
