GIRLS’ BASKETBALL TEAM TAKES ON VC

By JOEY DELGARDO

JOEY DELGARDO FOR WIZARD WEEKLY

This Thursday, at Valley Central High School, the girls’ basketball team played in a league game. This game meant a great deal to the girls because it was a division game which would take the players one step closer to a section run. 

Star player, Victoria Pecovic, returned after missing the last game due to illness. She was quoted as saying, “I was very upset about missing the game but the girls did a great job without me and ended up winning that game. I am excited to be back at Valley Central because it’s a league game and it is very important to us.”

The girls have been putting in a tremendous effort since the beginning of the season in every aspect of the game. Victoria Mirecki claimed, “We have been working really hard all season long and I definitely feel ready for this league game. There is nothing else for our team to work on; we just have to play hard and leave everything on the court.” Although there is always something to work on, Victoria feels very confident going into this league game and hopes to come out with the win. 

Victoria Pecovic, one of the captains of the team, stated, “From the beginning of the season to now, we have improved tremendously with our chemistry and have just been working really well together. Hopefully the chemistry continues to grow so we can pull off more wins this season.” It appears as if both Victorias have the same thoughts about the team's improvement and readiness to beat VC.  

Victoria Pecovic led the team with 18 points. The final score was 60-43 with our own Wizards taking the division win. Good luck to the girls for the rest of the season!
