It was a hard night for the Heartland Huskies last night as they faced Tri County. Both boys and girls teams struggled a bit and Heartland returned home last night with a pair of losses. The girls lost a close one 36-40 and the boys fell 30-45.

The girls team struggled with turnovers all night. The were also creating turnovers by Tri County, but just could not do enough to get the win. Heartland was up 15-9 at the end of the first quarter, but struggled the next two quarters; only scoring nine points in the second and third quarter combined. Mikaelyn Dick hit a couple big three’s when they were needed and ended the night with game high 13 points. Sara Brune was back from being ill on Tuesday night’s game and she made things happen down low and ended the night with 12 points.

The game came down to the wire as the Huskies were down by two with the ball, but things did not fall in the favor last night.

The boys team also played a close game getting within six points in the fourth quarter but a tough second quarter put them down and needing to dig out of that hole. Tri County used their size to their advantage to hurt the Huskies down low. Jordan Heinrichs again had a strong night with his aggressive play and ended the night with a team high 18 points.

The team did prove themselves at the free throw line by going seven for seven, but did not get there enough and took the loss.

They also will play tonight at Twin River. The game will be blogged live on the Huskie Sports Network if you or someone you know is unable to make the game.
