December To Remember
The Farmington Girls Seventh Grade Travel Baskeball team finished the month of December with a perfect 6-0 record. The seventh graders had home wins vs. Newington, Southington and Tolland and road wins vs. Bristol, Berlin and Simsbury in the last month of 2011.
The December streak boosted the team's overall record to 8-2 and its Connecticut Girls Travel Basketball League record to 6-2.
Mary Schoenherr and Erica Szydlik have been the top scorers for the team in most games. Both girls regularly crack double figures, with Mary pouring in a season-high 23 points at Simsbury.
Julia Borgida and Amanda James have been shooting very well from the outside this season.
Cailin Cruess and Dana Thiesfeldt have been leading the way on the defensive end.
Julia Harrell has been draining her free throws and, along with Annika Munson, has been doing a great job on the boards.
Julia Cohn has shown remarkable ballhandling skills this season, while Tara O'Coin and Maddy Chagnon have been getting a lot of steals and deflections on the fullcourt press.
The seventh graders took a loss at Glastonbury on Jan. 7 to open 2012, but bounced right back to pick up another home win against Avon the next day.
Lots of tough games ahead this season for the seventh graders, but this team will always have fond memories of December 2011.
