Polson gained a point by halftime but Stevensville buckled down on defense in the third quarter and only allowed five points for the Lady Pirates while scoring 14 themselves. Polson came on strongly in the fourth quarter and scored 24 points but it wasn’t enough as the Lady ‘Jackets defeated Polson, 52-47, in a non-conference game.

Stevensville was led by freshman Alycia Sims who netted 18 points and seven rebounds. Blaire Brookshire added nine points and McKenzie Sebastian had eight.

The Stevensville Yellowjackets didn’t fare as well as the Lady ‘Jackets. They were unable to overcome a 13-point difference in the third quarter and lost, 75-70. Stevensville trailed by only four points at the end of the first quarter. They kept with the Pirates in the second but just couldn’t contain Polson’s Kyle Bagnell who dropped in 30 points. The ‘Jackets made a run in the fourth quarter and scored 34 points but time ran out before they could take the lead.

Stevensville was led by Josh Schulz who also had 30 points with 24 of those on three-point baskets. Price Miller also had double figures with 16 points.
