The Sullivan Lady Redskins continued their dominance of the Lincoln Prairie conference last week. They hold the top spot with a record of 4-0 in conference play. The first game of the week was against the ALAH Lady Knights. The week wrapped up on the road against the Unity Christian Lady Lions.

Home against ALAH

ALAH came to Sullivan riding on the heels of their victory against Heritage. A smaller team with not a lot of depth on the bench, the Lady Knights struggled from the start against Sullivan and their widely rotated roster. The Lady Redskins started strong with a full pressure defense that led to many pass deflections, steals, and blocks. They held ALAH to just three points in the first quarter and seven points in the second quarter.

The Sullivan Blue Dolphins traveled to Bloomington on December 6th and 7th to compete at the Bruce Walker Memorial Meet hosted by BNSC. It was a preliminary final meet where they had many swimmers make it to the finals. Podium place finishes top 8 in finals: Michaela Blickensderfer, Emily Crosier, Kinsley Eads, Aubrey Fultz, Charles Guyot, and Kylan Hall. Stella Perrot was the Eight and Under High Point Girl.

Unfortunately, inclement weather last Saturday forced the cancellation of the Redskins Christmas Shootout. However, in the days leading up to that cancelled event, and coming off a couple of tough non-conference losses, the Lady Redskins were looking at getting back in their familiar spot in the win column. They did just that with two conference wins last week against two contrasting teams.

 Undefeated Hawks

The first game of last week for the Lady Redskins was a home contest against the undefeated Heritage Lady Hawks from Broadlands, IL. Stats from the game were not made available to the News Progress prior to the printing deadline. Sullivan did deliver Heritage their first loss of the season though with a final score of 45-33.

The Sullivan Redskins had a busy week last week, unfortunately, not all outcomes were in their favor. It was not for lack of trying though as the boys continue to put up strong numbers, improving with each passing minute of every game.

11 mile rivalry

The Redskins hosted Windsor/Stew-Stras for their home opener. Always a great matchup between these close rivals, this game did not disappoint. The intensity of the first quarter gave the crowd a great idea of what the rest of the game would look like. Sullivan outscored the Hatchets 19-17 through the first eight minutes. And the Redskins kept chopping away in the second quarter, out scoring WSS 16-5.

The Sullivan Lady Redskins hosted two games last week prior to the Thanksgiving holiday. The first one was against a notoriously sound Mt. Zion Lady Braves while the second game was host to the Robinson Lady Maroons.
