Morgan Pulido and Sierra Kosloski battle for the ball

On Tuesday, January 9, 2018, the girls’ basketball team played against BCHS and lost. The freshman and JV game was canceled, so it was only varsity that got to play. BCHS pulled ahead early and scored more points all the way until the 4th quarter. Taft had to battle all the way until the very end and unfortunately lost. However, losing doesn’t mean that they lost entirely in every single aspect. Although the scoreboard showed a loss, Taft played very hard and continued to compete until the time remaining on the clock was 00:00. Students also recognized this as shown by a statement given to The Gusher staff, “The game was overall very entertaining, a lot of people showed up to watch, and everyone was cheering,” said Anahi Saucedo Penaloza, who was enjoying the game from the audience. So far the season is off to a very fulfilling start.

Final score:

Taft: 45

BCHS:55
