The Lady Redskins played two games last week. At the end of the week, they had outscored their two opponents 137-19. The wins moved them to 24-3 (9-0).
The first contest of the week was against Okaw Valley. One could venture a guess that by the end of the first quarter, the game was over. Sullivan didn’t allow OV on the board until the third quarter. And that was just a basket. They would allow just four more points in the fourth quarter for a final score of 75-6. Three Lady Redskins ended up in double digits for points. Aeralyn Thrasher led with 16, while Addison Minor and Emily Miller had 14 and 10, respectively. Thrasher also led in rebounds with seven.

Coming off the high of winning the LPC conference championship, the Lady Redskins wasted no time resuming their regular season dominance. And the play started with a rematch against the Cumberland Pirates.
Cumberland gave Sullivan a run for their money in the conference championship. But Sullivan struggled rebounding and making anything beyond the perimeter. As a team, they agreed they couldn’t let that happen again. So they didn’t. They held the Pirates to just two points in the first quarter and just a single point in the fourth. Addison Stollard led the team in scoring with 13 points. Both Shae Ellis and Aeralyn Thrasher had 10 points. Devon Richardson scored nine while Emily Miller and Nevaeh Dovell had seven and six points, respectively. Miller also led the team in rebounds with 11. Coach Sheri McCain said, “The ladies shot the ball extremely well this time around hitting 10 three pointers on the night.” The Lady Redskins defeated Cumberland by a score of 60-26.

Over twenty years ago, Sullivan and, then, just Bethany, formed a co-op to give access to sports for students who would not normally be granted such an opportunity. For Bethany, this meant that those desiring to play football would indeed have the opportunity. For the longest time, the co-op was just called Sullivan/Bethany, but colloquially was known just as the Sullivan Redskins. Eventually, in 2001 Bethany and Findlay merged to become Okaw Valley. Over time, the co-op decided to adopt the acronym SOV for the Sullivan/Okaw Valley teams.

After a week-long conference tournament hosted by Okaw Valley, the Lady Redskins prevailed victorious last Saturday night with their third tournament win that earned them the hardware.
The first win of the week came on Monday against Unity Christian. The strong defense really came out in the second quarter as the girls didn’t allow the Lions to score again until the third quarter. They also managed to never allow Unity Christian to score more than eight in a quarter. Shae Ellis exploded for 17 points in that game. Addison Stollard also had a great game with another nine points. Ellis and Stollard also drained two three-pointers each. Mae Dawkins added another three. The final in the conference tournament opener was 46-21.

The Sullivan Redskins have an overall winning record. And in the conference, they are undefeated. This is thanks to two big wins over conference opponents last week.
First up was Cerro Gordo/Bement. Defensively, their main focus was Will Fuson. Aside from his quickness, he is dangerous behind the arc. He proved so by draining five threes in the evening. Unfortunately, no other CGB player got out of single digits in scoring. For Sullivan, Drayden Watkins led the team with 13 points. He was followed closely by Cam Watkins who had 12. James Feldkamp had eight points, including two first quarter threes while Tegan McRill had seven points. DeMarkus Moore had six points while Cooper Christensen contributed with five of his own. The boys won 53-31.
