Warriors’ Defense Stifles Blue Devils in Lopsided Loss
PEOTONE — The Peotone Blue Devils endured a tough shooting night Friday, falling 52-20 to the Crete-Monee Warriors in non-conference girls basketball action.
The Blue Devils (0-3) connected on just 8-of-48 shots from the field (17%) and went a frigid 1-of-19 from three-point range as the Warriors’ defense smothered Peotone throughout the contest.
Junior Kennedy Bettenhausen led Peotone with seven points on 3-of-5 shooting, providing one of the few bright spots on an otherwise difficult evening. Freshman Payton Pape added three points and led the team with three steals.
Junior Callie Weiss grabbed a team-high seven rebounds, while senior Addison Brandau pulled down four boards. Junior Olivia Moe contributed four rebounds and an assist in the losing effort.
Seniors M. Schroeder, Emma Orzel, and Addison Brandau each chipped in two points, as did juniors Callie Weiss and freshman Charley Isbell.
The Warriors (2-1) will travel to Manteno on Monday for a non-conference matchup against the Panthers. Peotone looks to get back on track when they open Illinois Central Eight conference play at Streator on Monday, Dec. 1.
