Jersey moves to 5-5 on the season. Carrollton is now 7-5.
Jersey head girls basketball coach Kevin Strebel said: “We started off first possession of game instead of passing shot took seven passes and got back for layup did another one like that shared ball so much better. We ran the floor and thought could go deeper than Carrollton and showed that tonight, this is a deep team. At certain point, they were getting really tired. A lot of even scoring tonight, that was nice. From three our best shooting night, we had us six of 10. We were really good offensively.”
Jersey plays Tuesday at Triad and then in a shootout Saturday against a tough Lutheran North team at Bethalto.
Carrollton coach Blaine Hartwick said “Jersey jumped us in the beginning of the game,” which made it difficult to recover.
“We had a couple missed shots at the start and they did great job transition getting up and down the floor,” Hartwick said. “They are a bigger school and do have more athletes. We put this on the schedule always be the underdog. This is a great game for us to get good competition. I give credit to Jerseyville; the Breden girl is tough. We scored 48, but can’t give up 67.”
Carrollton plays vs. Triopia/Meredosia-Chambersburg/Virginia next there on Monday at home against Western/Seymour on Thursday.
