G-E-T falls to Viroqua, BRF in latest losses

A loss to Viroqua represented the Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau girls basketball team’s highest scoring output and closest margin of the season, but it did not land them that elusive first win.

The Red Hawks (0-6, 0-3 Coulee) fell to the Blackhawks at home and then were turned aside by Black River Falls on the road. G-E-T makes a detour into non-conference play against Mondovi on Tuesday then hosts Arcadia in Coulee action on Thursday.

Despite a solid second half, a 38-16 halftime deficit was too much for the Red Hawks to overcome in their loss to Viroqua (3-3, 2-2 Coulee) last Tuesday in Galesville.

Leading scorers for Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau included junior Amara Brantner with 14 points, sophomores Sami Filla and Joshlyn Lunsford with nine each and junior Lexi James with seven.

Viroqua freshman Allyah Schwem scored a game-high 26 points and junior Kate Quackenbush added 13 in the win.
