DHS Girls Basketball Team Takes Third At CRC

 

The DHS girls basketball team earlier today captured third place at the Crossroads Conference Tournament in York, defeating the High Plains Storm for the second time this season. 

The Lady Longhorns won the consolation game 35-20. 

Dorchester junior Baylor Behrens led all players with 16 points. Gabrielle Theis added eight and Bailey Theis six. 

This marks the best finish for a Dorchester basketball team in the CRC Tournament in many seasons.

As reported by the York News-Times, Dorchester led by only 20-13 as the teams went to the final quarter, but a three-pointer and two conventional baskets by Gabrielle Theis, along with a pair of free throws by Baylor Behrens, put the game out of reach.

The Lady Longhorns, now 12-5 on the season, have just five regular season games remaining, including a contest at East Butler on Monday, Jan. 29. 

DHS is in a position to exceed 15 wins this season, which would put this team in very select company as part of Dorchester's basketball history, regardless of gender.
