Game 16: Alma/Pepin @ Immanuel

At Eau Claire Immanuel
February 5, 2013

Eau Claire Immanuel: 68 (13-3, 8-1)

Alma/Pepin: 51 (0-10, 2-12)

NOTE: After keeping fans on their toes the past two games, just edging out wins, tonight the Lady Lancers were able to handily get the victory over Small Dairyland Conference foe, Alma/Pepin. Spotting Alma/Pepin five points to begin the game, even letting them get ahead to 10-4, the Lancers then surged ahead at the end of the first quarter (20-14) and refused to relinquish the lead thereafter. Even though the game was quite spirited with Alma/Pepin's overall team quickness, the Lancers were able to play at a high pace and get quality, open looks at the basket. The Lancers now have three consecutive victories over Alma/Pepin after starting off 0-6 against them since they first began a co-op during the 2009-10 season. During the first quarter Abbie Hein crossed the 1500 point plateau and play stopped to acknowledge this feat. For the game she broke the girls' single-game scoring record with 35 points, previously held by herself with 34 points (v. New Auburn on 11/29/2011).

The Lancers move on with a 13-3 record, still racking up the best-ever start to an Immanuel season. They also set a record with a 9-game winning streak. 8-game winning streaks were accomplished in 2005-06 and 2011-12. In addition, the Lancers are 8-1 in conference, a 2.5 game-lead over Cochrane-Fountain City (6-4). One more conference win by Immanuel will secure at least a share of the conference title. Two more conference wins will enable the Lancers to get the title outright. The Lancers will play Gilmanton at home this Friday, Feb. 8, the only team Immanuel has lost to in conference. They lost to them 57-64 on December 12, 2012 at Gilmanton.

Rebecca Naumann was able to return to the rotation this evening after nursing tendonitis in one of her feet. Johanna Meyer recently passed the baseline test for her concussion, hoping to return for Friday's game against Gilmanton. Johanna Ohlmann still has a severe ankle sprain and the time of her return is unknown.
