Huskie started the second half aggressively, attacked the color and pulled fouls. She ended up 12 points in the second half to top all the scorers, but the Bulldogs’ lead was too big to beat.
Schrader said the Panthers were simply overwhelmed at the start of the tournament. She believes that the players will learn from the game.
“After going into this transition from last season, a large part of our success last season was our energy, and our energy was just very low today. You learn from that, especially in summer, and it shows how we need to improve, ”she said. “At this point in the summer, I don’t care if you play the game wrong as long as you play with hardness and energy.”
Coconino was scheduled to face Salpointe Catholic, the playoff runner-up in the 4A Conference, in the second game of the event.
