We were certainly exhausted by the end of the game, but I felt like we tried to fight through being tired and execute what we were trying to do on a high level. We were able to force Mt. Pine into a lot of turnovers, but we need to improve on our ability to limit our turnovers and win the battle on the boards. Mt. Pine has a nice young team and it was a good challenge for us. I felt like this was a good win for us.” The Fountain Lake player of the game was Mary Drakes. Don’t miss Fountain Lake Senior Girls as they play Centerpoint on November 17, 2022.
