Uncategorized

On Friday the 27th, Cyclone and Bulldog fans filled Jerry Kersey Gymnasium. The Lady Cyclones put on an outstanding show, the final score being 83-9. Unlike the past couple of games, the Lady Cyclones seemed to be firing on all cylinders. Senior guard, Dee Arrieta, hit a few threes throughout the course of the game and Haley Simental added a couple as well. The team’s inside game didn’t look bad either as every post on the roster managed to score. For the first time in a while it seemed that on both sides of the floor, the Lady Cyclones were intense, getting steal after steal and converting on the fastbreak.   By the end of the first half the Cyclones had scored 53 and kept the Bulldogs scoreless. The second half  started off much as the same as the first quarter with the Cyclones making even more of a lead, ending the game with an outstanding score of Cyclones 83 Bulldogs Read the Rest »

On Tuesday the 24th, the Cyclones and Hornets prepared for battle in Jerry Kersey Gymnasium. The stands were packed on both sides of the court. As the first quarter started, the Cyclones ran off to a 15-6 lead. They kept up the pace with 3-point shots from senior Garrett Miller and great defensive rebounds. However, junior Braydon Barry ran into quick foul trouble with 3 personals. The second quarter started off much as the same as the first quarter with the Cyclones making well needed baskets. The Hornets were matching West in completed shots, but the score was largely in favor of West going into halftime 38-26. Once the third quarter started, the Hornets began to make some progress.

Lady Cyclones Keep It Rolling

Sports

Although not the prettiest of games, the Lady Cyclones managed to defeat the County Hornets 64-42 last night, Tuesday January 24th. This now puts the number four ranked Cyclones at 14-2 with their only losses coming from the two top ranked teams in the state, Pueblo South and Air Academy. They still remain in second place in the SC-L after this latest win.  After a crushing loss in double overtime to South barely two weeks ago, it seems as if the Cyclones have yet to get back into a rhythm. Shots that were easily made at the beginning of the season now seem to have a hard time finding the bottom of the net. However last night, DeeAnna Arrieta, a senior guard for West who will be playing at CSU-P next year, shot well and gained 18 points, leading all scorers. Just as with their last game, the Cyclones found themselves Read the Rest »
