The Frankenmuth Lady Eagles traveled to Redford Township and played Division 1 Battle Creek Lakeview in the Motor City Roundball Classic and walked away with a gritty 35-31 win on Wednesday.
Muth overcame a tough shooting performance, going 3-of-24 from behind the arc but Kierstyn Bully hit a huge 3 with a couple of minutes to go to give the Lady Eagles their first lead of the second half. Clutch free throws from Mia McLaughlin and a steal by Izzy Bernthal sealed the deal.
Clare Conzelmann led the Lady Eagles in scoring with 11 points. Lexi Boyke had another great statistical game, scoring 7 points, 15 rebounds, 6 blocks and 5 steals. Izzy Bernthal had 9 rebounds.
Frankenmuth is off until Jan. 6, when it will host Swan Valley in a early first place showdown,
