Wartburg vs Wisconsin Eau Claire

On Saturday we had our first home game against Wisconsin Eau Claire. Everyone was pumped up and excited to start playing because it was our home opener and we have been waiting for our home game for a long time. The game started off really good, we were up by 10 and we were doing everything we wanted to do. Our zone defense was working really good against them and we were running our plays and getting the shots we wanted. Then we started to struggle rebounding and they started getting easy points. When half time came, we were down by 2 and the coaches were not very happy with us. When we started the second half we came out really strong and went on a little run. But then they started getting easy shots and we were down by 5. Towards the end of the game it was really close and we would be down by 2 then tied, then we would be up by 1 then tied. It was a back and forth game. There was 2 minutes left on the clock and Bobbie Burrows hit a three to put us up by 2. Then they got a lay up to tie the game. Then one of our player got fouled and made one of her freethrows to put us up by 1. Then we got fouled again and made one freethrow to put us up by 2. Then we help them for the last 15 seconds and we won! It was a crazy and exciting game and definitely a good win for the knights.
