October 2013 - Where it all started.

We got our start as the 4th grade Jr. Lady Starfires. Thank you to Coach Freeman for getting us started.

Our first organized basketball experience was the Fall Boomer League at Jay County High School. We were together for all of two practices before our first doubleheader gameday. We lost both games that day to Jay County and MG Elite.

Conditioning and fundamentals became the focus of our practices thereafter and positive results followed. The next four weeks we were undefeated with key victories over Blackford and eventual league champion MG Elite by a score of 20-8. Defensively, we held them to 1 point in the first half.

The regular season was now complete. Despite our 0-2 start, we were now 8-2 and entered the postseason tournament as the number 3 seed. On tournament day, we advanced to the semi-final round and lost a very tough game against number 2 seed Jay County by the score of 26-25. The last possession of the game had us inbounding the ball under our own basket with 4 seconds left in the game. Makayla Hamrick passed the ball inbounds to Vivian O'Dell who then passed to Jocelyn Willis. Jocelyn shot a contested 15 footer to win the game which fell off the rim and our season was over. We finished with a 9-3 record.
