Frosh Redettes compete

By Julie Clark - Sports editor

The Centerville Redettes freshmen basketball team was defeated by Oskaloosa in their season opener with a score of 47-24.

“I thought the girls played well in the early going of the game. We took our time and let the offense come to us. When we started to rush we weren’t as successful offensively,” said Coach Chuck Banks.

Breanna Boyle and Makenzie Richmond led the team with five points each followed by Mallory Craver and Lindsey Winkel with four points each.

Also scoring in the game were Jessica Demry, Shelby Royer and Chelsey Bankson each scoring two points.

Defensively the team was led by Richmond, Lauren Craver and Demry with five rebounds each while Royer, Boyle and M. Craver each had four rebounds.

Richmond also dominated in blocks with eight while L. Craver, M.Craver and Boyle each had five blocks.

Demry had three assists and Winkel had two blocks to lead the team.

The Redettes next game of the season was against Clarke. They were defeated 28-12 with five points coming from Royer to lead the team while Demry added four points and Makenna Pershy had two points. Also scoring was Bankson with one point.

Boyle and L. Craver led the team in rebounds with three each and M. Craver had three blocks.

On Friday the girls traveled to Davis County and got their first win of the season with a score of 37-26.

Pershy led the offense with 10 points followed by eight from Demry and seven from Richmond.

Also scoring were L. Craver with five, M. Craver with four, Winkel added two and Royer had one point in the effort.

Pershy also led the defense grabbing 10 rebounds, followed by Richmond with nine and L. Craver with four. Demry had four asssits and four steals while Boyle had five steals.

The freshmen played in Seymour on Monday night. Watch for stats from that game later this week.

The Redettes (1-2 overall) will be at home against Eddyville-Blakesburg on Thursday.

Poll

So, the question this week is, “Will it stay or will it go?” The United States Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C. wants to close three Farm Service Agency offices in southern Iowa, which includes the FSA office in Centerville, and consolidate the operations in order to save money. Tuesday afternoon a meeting was held at Faith United Methodist Church to allow farmers and other producers who use the Centerville FSA office to make comments about the closing to John R. Whitaker, state executive director Iowa FSA. Many questioned if the meeting Tuesday was necessary because the decision had already been made.

A. Yes, because Washington will listen.
B. No, because the decision to close the Appanoose County FSA office has already been made.
