The Ballard girls basketball team travelled to kenmore last night for a conference game against Inglemoor.

The Lady Vikings earned a five point lead in the first quarter but the Beavers fought hard to take back the lead resulting in a halftime score of 32 for the Beavers and 30 for Inglemoor.

The third quarter was equally close in score with Ballard scoring 18 and Inglemoor gaining on the Beavers' lead with 19.

Going into the fourth quarter with a one-point lead, it was crucial for the Beavers to step up the defense while continuing to build on their lead. The Vikings however made a strong comeback both offensively and defensively allowing the Beaver to score only four points while scoring 24 points themselves for a final score of 54 to 73 for the Inglemoor Vikings.

Leading the Beavers in scoring was Cailey Beckett with 14 points, followed by Keina Ishiyama with 13. Imani Bender had eight rebounds and one assist; Samantha Hall had six rebounds and one assist.
