Balanced scoring helps Black Swish route Fairfield

By Jeremy Mast Correspondent NAPPANEE The Black Swish found the going easy when spreading the ball around as eight different Lady Panthers scored in the 62*21 drubbing of Fairfield last Tuesday evening in a non-conference match up. It started from the beginning as five of the eight Blade Swish players scored in the first quarter lead by sophomore point guard Jordyn Frantz's five points. With senior Savannah Bley out with an injury, Fairfield made sure Lady Panther sensation, junior Morgan Olson, worked hard for her points as she was doubleand triple-teamed every trip down the floor. "Morgan (Olson) got shoved around big time the first half and kept her cool," North Wood Head Coach Steve Neff said of the

constant harassment Olson received from Fairfield. With so much attention on Olson, some other Lady Panthers had to be open. Frantz and senior Taylor Stutzman took advantage each hitting shots behind the arc to give North Wood (6-3) a 14-4 first quarter lead. North Wood opened the second quarter with a 14-0 run highlighted by Olson grabbing a defensive rebound and going coast to coast with a nice four foot jumper for the score. Sophomore Ashley Yoder contributed during the run with a bucket after receiving the pass from an unselfish Olson. Yoder getting quality minutes off the bench due to Bley's absence lead the Black Swish with 10 boards. "Overall, we played pretty good without Savannah (Bley) in there," Neff commented after the game.

"Ashley Yoder did a nice job tonight Came in, rebounded, and played well." The defense also played a key role in the second quarter run holding the Lady Falcons scoreless with just over two minutes left in the half. "Defense creates offense," is the Black Swish philosophy Neff talked about. "We didn't have to go right into the teeth of their defense because we were rebounding and getting it out and getting quicker looks," he explained. "Whereas, if you let people score they are back ready on defense and you have to play harder on offense." The Lady Falcons, dropping to 5-4, didn't have an answer Tot Olson as their center and team leader, junior Haley Brown, was out with an injury. Shooting just 25 percent from the floor as a team doesn't help either

when you're missing your inside threat. The third quarter started with the similarity of the first half. Tough Lady Panther defense and some quick, good look shots on transition. Frantz hit two of her game high five three pointers during the third stanza. Rebounding from a concussion that held her out two games, Frantz looked like her old self tonight. She was 5-6 from three-point range for the game. "It opened up a jot of people, and a lot of pdOple shooting the ball helps," Neff commented about having Frantz back and her play making ability. Two minutes into the fourth quarter Neff emptied his bench, allowing the fans to give a well deserved standing ovation for the starters as they came off the floor. Although the

game was well in hand, this was an opportunity for the younger Lady Panthers to get some experience and adjust to the speed of the game. You can see the development of this team, as the Black Swish reserves didn't let down this time. They kept the intensity and ran the offense continuing to look for good shots. Just a couple games ago this group went through the motions at the end of a blow out game. Not tonight. This wasn't just a run out the clock session; this was a chance for the young ladies to play hard and see how they handle basketball at the varsity level. Next up for the Black Swish will be to play in the Bankers Qassic held in Middlebury at Northridge High School December 27th and 28th. • North Wood 62,
