Snowflake’s Lady Lobos won two of three games played last week, keeping themselves inside the top 24 in the power point ranking system, which is where they need to be in order to reach the post-season.
Hosting Show Low on Tuesday, the Lobos posted 19 first period points and led 39-12 at the half. The second half was closer, but the final outcome was a 57-31 Snowflake win. Tycee Coplan led the way for Snowflake with 17 points. Marisa Godfrey added 15; Tori Flake, 8; Melissa Eich, 7; Kadi Johnson, 6; and Macie Rawlins and Elle Flake, 2 each.
On Thursday the Lobos picked up a critical 57-52 win over Alchesay at Whiteriver. They trailed by three after the first, but a strong second period led to a 33-23 halftime lead. After the Lady Falcons trimmed all but one point off that lead in the third, Snowflake held on in the fourth to pick up the five-point win. Godfrey led the way with 16 points. Johnson added 12; Tori Flake, 10; Coplan, 9; Eich, 7; and Audrey Livingston, 3.
Saturday found the Lobos making the long trek to Kayenta where they fell to Monument Valley in a close game, 52-49.
Snowflake headed into this week’s action ranked 15th in the power point rankings. Overall on the season they were 10-9. After hosting Alchesay on Tuesday, the Lobos will host Round Valley tonight (Jan. 21). On Friday, Jan. 23, they continue a five-game home stand when Payson makes a visit. On Tuesday, Jan. 27, they will host Globe. The Lobos will finish the regular season with four road games.
