Lady Buffs play two tight games

In the past week, the Mondovi Lady Buffaloes fell to Gilmanton and to Glenwood City in two very close, well-fought games.

The girls kicked off the week with a non-conference game hosted by neighboring Gilmanton on Monday, Jan. 12. In the first half, it looked as if Gilmanton had the game in the bag. After a quick regroup during halftime though, the Lady Buffaloes fought their way back up the scoreboard, threatening to overtake the lead.

However, the Lady Buffs’ efforts fell short resulting in the five-point loss to the Panthers, 56-51, that evening.

No further stats from the game were made available at press time.

On Friday, Jan. 16, the ladies hosted Glenwood City to face them for the second time this season in Dunn-St. Croix Conference action.

After falling to the Hilltoppers by 35 earlier this season, the Lady Buffaloes controlled the game almost the entire 32 minutes. It was a close one, though. The girls held a narrow lead, 14-12, at the half after holding Glenwood to just two points in the second quarter.

  However, the visitors found their offensive footing in the second half to outscore the Lady Buffs, 25-18, to defeat Mondovi 37-32 after an exhausting four quarters.

Senior Mattie Mahlum led the home squad with a game-high 12 points followed by Haley Poeschel with six and Amanda Rud and Anna Accola with five points apiece.

Overall, considering the score the last time Mondovi played Glenwood, the girls have vastly improved and intend to continue doing so.

The girls get a week of practice to prepare for a long-distance road trip to face the Cadott Hornets in a non-conference game on Friday, Jan. 23. Mondovi will also take on Independence at home next Monday, Jan. 26, in another non-conference bout.
