DHS Girls Gouged By Giltner

In a game that was billed a "key game" by the Lincoln Journal Star, the Lady Longhorns were sent home more than disappointed by the girls of Giltner, listed this week as contenders in the LJS Class D1 ratings. The Hornets handed DHS their second painful loss of the year, 67-35.

The Longhorns this week (9-2) are rated No. 3 in Class D1 by the Omaha World-Herald and No. 9 by the Journal-Star. However, tonight's loss will undoubted drop DHS from the Top 10, as the team must now reorganize.

According to the Grand Island Independent's coverage of the game, "Giltner raced to a 29-10 halftime lead and exploded for a 67-35 win over Class D-1 No. 3-rated Dorchester. The Hornets completly dominated the game as they expanded their 19-point halftime lead in the second half. Stasia Ott led Giltner with 17 points and nine rebounds." Dorchester's scorers were M. Havlat 6, Boller 7, A. Havlet 4, Spanyers 5, Pracheil 11, Springer 2.

The girls will try to get back on track Friday when both Dorchester teams will travel to McCool Junction where the No. 17 DHS boys (8-2) will take on the No. 10 Mustangs (8-2). The Lady Mustangs are 4-7 on the year.

  2. Need to get that 3 point game going again. Box and 1 defense should be utilized against teams with one standout player.

    just what the world needs, another coach.

    leave the coaching to the coaches, the playing to the players

    the reffing to the refs

    and the cheering to the crowd.

  4. To the times staff.

    Your basketball stories are confusing and have been since the beginning.

    You mix up ratings and rankings in every article. Makes a person think every time an article is read.

    Stick to one or the other system, it will make it easier for your readers.

    Your comments make my head hurt. You should have paid more attention in grammar class. It would have paid off as you try to earn a living critiquing blogs.

  7. Anoymous,

    I'm the counterbalance to the loud idiots out there like you who run everyone down and criticize all except the one in the mirror. Get a grip.

    For the record you would be impressed with my job and my income.

    Love you!

  8. BOB,

    This is from a reader, your remarks are uncalled for. Think about what your writing. It's not kids stuff, your a grown man, act like it. Maybe look at what you have, not be what you make. Money is not everything. Losing a love one, your family or your home would seem more important. (Don't you think.)
