Offensively, the JV squad was able to get the shots they were looking for because of their patience. The leading scorers for the Bravettes were Courtney Petersen with 10 points and Dakota Norris with 7 points.

The Bravettes next played the Bears of BGM in a 44-19 loss. 
Offensively, the Bravettes attacked the Bear defense, getting to the free throw line 21 times throughout the game. Norris led the Bravettes in scoring with 7 points, while Carly Steele was close behind with 4.
Coach Timm commented about the tournament, “We have shown improvement, and at this level that is what we strive for.” The Bravettes completed the Saturday tournament with a second place finish.
