The Gibraltar girls basketball team hit the road again Tuesday night to face Oconto in Packerland Conference action.
The Vikings are still looking for the first win of the season after falling to state-ranked Wabeno-Laona on Saturday 62-25. Andie Schar made four of the Vikings' six made shots from the field to lead the team with nine points. Colleen Carlisle added six points in the loss for the Vikings. Despite the lack of wins, head coach Devin Thomas is proud of his team's improvement since last season when a late-season victory over Sturgeon Bay was their only one of the year.
The Blue Devils lost Division 1 recruit Lianna Baxter to graduation but have seemed to replace her with freshman Madilyn Thomson. She has proved to be a nice complement to Addisyn Viestenz with her 13.7 points per game and 8.6 rebounds. Viestenz leads the team with nearly 19 points per game and she is in the top three for rebounds and assists.
Tim Kowols will have the action live on U-1021 and NEWRadioSportsNetwork.com beginning at 7:15 p.m. with the tip-off at 7:30 p.m.
In other girls' basketball action, Bailey Rikkola looks to score her 1000th point as Sevastopol hosts Sturgeon Bay, Algoma looks to return to their winning ways against Peshtigo, and Kewaunee visits NEW Lutheran. All Packerland Conference games begin at 7:30 p.m.
