Early on, the girls were down 15-7, but they turned it around before halftime and were down 16-14 entering the locker room. Unfortunately, too much foul trouble plagued the Lady Griff’s, which hindered their offensive attack.
Next up, the girls host Eden in a big-time showdown in Division 4.

The varsity girls basketball team played Tonawanda on Friday night, in a league contest, and won 51-16. The girls set the tone from the start with some incredible defense. Dani Oakley led the charge defensively as she held Tonawanda's best player to 0 points on the evening. From there, the Lady Griffs executed their offense at a high level, playing with great unselfishness. Scorers on the night were:
Aubrey Roy- 20 points
Dani Oakley- 16 points
Kelcie Illig- 6 points
Lilly Enser- 3 points
Bella Sullivan- 3 points
Caroline Blidy- 1 point
The overall defense from the group was the story of the evening. Leah Franklin didn’t give an inch on her assignment, Bella Sullivan made strong plays on the ball, Brooke Ruzycki did a nice job with help defense, Kelcie Illig was a force when guarding the ball, Caroline Blidy hustled all over the court, and Lilly Enser made big-time hustle plays on the evening.
Other notable performances were Aubrey Roy scoring 9 points in one quarter and Dani Oakley getting 5 blocked shots.
The girls are back in action tonight as they play host to Wilson.

Our middle and high school students embraced the challenge of creating art to encourage safe choices this holiday season. The initiative, led by SADD and Above the Influence, will culminate in the anti-DWI messages being printed on paper bags and used at Cheap Chollies Wine and Liquor starting December 1st in conjunction with National Impaired Driving Prevention Month. The compelling designs were assessed by a judging panel of community leaders, including representatives from the Erie County Sheriff’s Office and local businesses. The winning entries earned the student artists a variety of local prizes.
