No. 12 Lions nipped by No. 15 PV

Tue - 19 Jan Written by Tom Fruehling

It was a classic battle between blue bloods and blue collar.

And in the end Tuesday night the gritty girls from Pleasant Valley beat the more-heralded Linn-Mar Lions. But just barely.

While spotting the smaller, younger Spartans a 12-point lead after three quarters, the Lions roared back to tie it at 54-all with less than a minute to go.

Following a wide-open driving bucket on the other end by PV’s Lana Lindstrom, Linn-Mar’s two stars in the waning seconds both had their chances to knot it again. But Kamryn Finley’s jumper was a little off and Amanda Ollinger’s rebound rolled off the rim.

With that, the Mississippi Athletic Conference contenders (now 10-4) head back to Bettendorf with a squeaker 56-54 win.
