The Dec. 9 game lived up to its
hype when the Beach Lady
Buccaneers used an aggressive
pressing-defense aald balanced scor-
ing attack to defeat highly touted
Harding County Ranchers 67 - 56.
It was a very physical game but
the Blue and Gold stood up to the
test and didn't back down throughout
the game. The Buccaneers jumped
off to 19 first-quarter points to set the
tone, but the Harding County
Ranchers from Buffalo, S.D., didn't
exactly sit back as they came back
with 15 of their own points.
In_the first quarter, Brittney Dietz
canle ready for the challenge and
went to work against Harding
County's star center, senior J.
Painter. Opening up the quarter,
sophomore Dietz attacked the bas-
ket, netting nine points to help her
team get off to a nluch needed good
start. In that same quarter she netted
five of seven from the charity line,
getting Painter in early foul trouble.
The second quarter really told the
stoW of the game as the Bucs'
aggressive defense caused numerous
turnovers that led to a very balanced
scoring attack where all five starters
scored and combined for 18 points
,and holding Harding County with
single digits of only eight points.
Goring into the locker room. the
Bucs took a 37 - 23 half time lead,
shooting 11 of 15 free throws, setting
up a very comfortable lead that they
would eventually need.
The third quarter was much the
same defensively for the Bucs, hold-
ing the Ranchers to only 10 points
while the Lady Bucs only managed
13 of their own.
The fourth quarter, both teanas
combined for 40 points with Harding
Count3 being the victor of the last
quarter outscoring BHS 23 - 17, but
the game went to the Buccaneers.

This is going to be an interesting
year, Tonight the girls stepped up to
the plate and hit a homemn. Not
exactly basketball terminology, but
the point that they lined up and were
ready for the challenge. I liked our
team's attitude and for the first time
showed some maturity.
Our interior defense impressed
me. Jill didn't have great numbers
but defended the interior with good
strength. Brittney Dietz came ready

their legs battling Thompson, only to lose
their first game of the season in overtime.
for the challenge and played her best
game of her young career. It was
very physical underneath the basket.
She took a beating, but dished it back
and gave us a good physical inside
presence. She knew that she had to
be assertive in her position and took
charge of the paipt early in the game.
Making 10 of 12 from the free throw
line didn't hurt her team either.
All in all it Was a good effort as
our kids knew where the ball was
most of the time and snuck in to get
some steals and picks. After the
steals and picks, came the good pass-
ing that put us on some good runs
that impressed everyone.
I was very' proud of our girls read-
ing the floor on defense. They read
their traps well.
The game was one of those "good
feeling" games. We played a very
good South Dakota team and our
players responded in such a positive
way. They took third last year and t
like their chances of winning it all in
2009.
Hoopster Classic showdown
Last spring, Don Hanson, the edi-
tor of North Dakota's Hoopster
Magazine, invited the Lady
Buccaneers to his very own
Hoopster Classic that is played at the
Bismarck Civic Center. It is touted
as the Class B version of the East
meeting the West for both boys
and girls - making it a very compet-
itive event of Class B basketball.
The Hoopster Classic is in ~ts third
year, making it a very popular event
and a very nice venue for all of the
players who get to participate.
Hanson treats all of the teams after
each ore of their games to pizzas
brought right to their locker room.
The two-day event is priceless for
the tans as they can watch basketball
all day for only $8. This year's clas-
sic held many fans back home as
blizzard warnings came into effect
with sub-zero temperatures. The
weather did cause some cancella-
tions of some games, but did not hin-
der the Lady Buccaneers' playing of
their two games.
On Friday; the Buccaneers
hopped the bus at 8 a.m. and hit the
hardwood at 12:30 p.m. to meet up
with the Thompson Tommys.
Thompson. N.D.. is located about 10
miles from Grand Forks.
The Buccaneers had its hardest
game of its young season as they
never could find their legs battling
Thompson, only to lose their first
game of the season in overtime. The
contest was close throughout. There
were 13 lead changes, and the
biggest lead for either team was eight
points.
Abby Weinreis sunk seven three
pointers for the Bucs but was
matched by Taylor Broyles of
Thompson with her own seven
bombs that took down the .~third-
ranked Buccaneers. Both players led
their own teams in scoring with 23
points, but it was Broyle's last three-
pointer that proved to be the game
winner for the Tonunys. The game
featured 20 three-pointers. Eleven
were scored by Thompson and nine
were scored by Beach.

Beach defeats Grafton
Coming off their only loss of the
season, the Buccaneers wasted no
time jumping off to an early first
quarter, 20 - 7 lead and half-time
score of 38 - 22. Katie Houdek, the
6' 1" center for Grafton being recruit-
ed by UND, did not intimidate the
likes of Brittney Dietz. Dietz
received the ball inside and proceed-
ed with a variety of moves that
totaled for 18 first-half points. It was
by far Brittney's best half of her
career that led the assault on Grafton.
The rest of the Buccaneers didn't
exactly stand around and watch as
the defense picked up and the fast
break caught on fire. The legs were
back and the Bucs were running with
good passes up the floor with
impressive finishes.
The Spoilers got to within six
points, 26-20, in the second quarter,
but the Buccaneers finished off the

better with clock management and
tighten up our defense. Playing good
competitive teams exPoses some of
our weaknesses, but enables us to
work on them to make us a much bet-

It was a great week for our gifts
even though we lost a game in
Bismarck at the Hoopster Classic. We
played some good competition and it
was a great learning curve for our
team. I don't like to lose, but I would
rather lose by one than win by forty or
fitly. That seems sla'ange, but we learn
so much when we are in a good fight.
For some reason or a combination
of reasons we just didn't have our
legs during the Thompson game.
Our girls really struggled, but I was
proud of the way they pushed them-
selves all throughout the game. It
might have been the bus ride or the
fact that we took a day off before the
game, but we just didn't have the
snap. Give credit to Thompson, they
kept their poise and made some big
shots to beat us.
The next day told me something
about the kids when they tore into
Grafton to avenge our loss. Our gifts
played the ball tough, made some
good double-teams and reacted with
steals. They were a totally different
team from the previous day's work.
The kids displayed some good fast
breaks getting down the court mak-
ing nice passes and finishing busi-
ness. We were a team that had its
energy back.
