Sheridan girls edge Hiland in defensive battle
BERLIN — Points were at a premium for Sheridan on Monday night.
But, the Generals turned up their defensive pressure to shut down defending Division III state champion Berlin Hiland in a 33-27 victory in the final game of the Classic in the Country on the Hawks' homecourt.
Sheridan, which improved to 13-2, only led 9-6 through one quarter then took a 14-12 edge into halftime. Both teams found some offense in the third, as the Generals built a 26-21 advantage entering the fourth quarter.
Jamisyn Stinson earned the player of the game, scoring a team-high 11 points and grabbing eight rebounds to pace the Generals.
Bailey Beckstedt added seven points, Faith Stinson pulled down 13 rebounds with five points, Abby Dupler and Halle Warner had four points each and Nora Saffell rounded out the scoring with two points.
Sheridan's game with Logan on Wednesday has been canceled.
Other girls basketball games currently scheduled for Wednesday include John Glenn visiting Dover, Tri-Valley hosting Maysville, Morgan heading to New Lexington in a key Muskingum Valley League Small School Division clash, and Zanesville entertaining Lakewood in Licking County League action.
