North Putnam defeats South Vermillion

Wednesday, November 26, 2008

The North Putnam Cougars got their second win of the season, defeating South Vermillion 49-38 Tuesday.

Leading the way was Carlye McGaughey's 16 points. She was followed by Shilah Kumaran with 10 points, Elsiana Crosby with nine, Leah Crosby with six and Taylor Alles with four. Shelby Frye and Dakota Malayer added two points each.

The Cougars have struggled from the field this season, but on Tuesday they hit their stride.

"We shot the ball very well," North Putnam head coach Kevin Smith said. "This past weekend in the county tourney we didn't shoot the ball well and the girls were a little down. We had a good day of practice yesterday and the girls came out with some confidence and got a couple shots to go down early."

North Putnam will host Rockville at 6 p.m. next Thursday.
