melcher-dallas-5

In Melcher-Dallas’ first home Bluegrass Conference doubleheader of the season, both boys and girls teams routed Seymour in two convincing wins. The girls put forth their best defensive effort of the season thus far, knocking off Seymour 42-22. The boys got their first win of the season, a 75-34 trouncing.

 

Melcher-Dallas’ girls extended their winning streak to three with a resounding win. The Saints’ defense was suffocating as they allowed just three made baskets from the field. Haley Godfrey stepped up and had a season-high 15 points in the victory. Godfrey, Kynser Reed, Grace Overgaard, and Hailey Hoch all had five rebounds or more in the victory.

 

The boys snatched their first win of the season thanks to their top three scorers, Ryan Krpan, Steven Krpan, and Lane VanderLinden. The Krpan twins combined to score 40 points; Ryan with 22 and Steven had 18. VanderLinden was close behind with 17. While the Saints put up their highest scoring total of the season, the defense was the story allowing just nine points in the second half.

 

Both teams will be back in action for another Bluegrass Conference doubleheader Tuesday with another matchup against Murray. The girls’ game tips off at 6:00 PM.
