 Over three quarters of the way into their season, the Monaga girls basketball team is flying high. The Braves are 14 and 4 and have won 8 of their last 10 games, while averaging nearly 70 points per game in those contests. Tonight they hosted 15 and 4 New York Mills, looking to continue their winning ways. First half, Monaga down 6, off the missed New York Mills shot. Elena Lake eventually comes up with a rebound. She goes coast to coast for the bucket, lead cut to 4. Couple possessions later, same score. Alyssa Peterson drives baseline, squeezes the shot between two defenders. Braves within 2. Then next possession after that, Monaga back in transition. Megan Hendricks didn't find Sierra, off spotting up from deep. She drills it to give the Braves the one point lead and then back down a point. It's Courtney Coburnick's turn to join the party. She drops home the layup to give the Braves the lead. They trail by one at the half though, but they come back and win 75-66 over New York Mills.
