girls win pair

Quarter scores at Genesee were 12-12, 22-18, 34-25 and 42-36. Some of the results due to the long Christmas Break layoff as both teams struggled a bit from the field.

Thursday they play Timberline at Nezperce with a 4:30 JV start, 6 p.m. varsity followed by the boys playing C.V. Then the Summit girls host top-ranked Lapwai at PHS on Friday. Summit boys lose twice Hit by early turnovers brought on by an intense Genesee Bulldog press, and the torrid shooting of Sam Druffel who hit 3 of 4 trey attempts, banging home 15 points in the first two quarters alone, Summit got an unpleasant taste of what life is like playing the number one ranked 1A-Division I team in the state this past Thursday playing at the PHS gym. The first quarter score settled the issue for the evening, Genesee 25-Summit 4, though the remainder of the game proved much more competitive with Summit scoring 10 to Genesee’s 13 in the second quarter, 21 to the Bulldogs’ 17 in the third and 8 to the visitor’s 16 in the final stanza for a final score of 43-71. Druffel finished with 24 points for the evening as Summit clamped down a little better in the third with subs playing a lot of the fourth quarter for both teams. All in all, the Bulldogs canned 8 threes on the evening with Tilleman adding 2, Hermann 1, Knecht 1 and Duffel 1 more in the third. Scoring, boards, assists and steals for the Patriots are as follows: Dan Wemhoff 0, 1, 0, 0; Derek Nuxoll 8, 9, 6, 0; Josh Lustig 2, 1, 1, 0; Shane Stubbers 8, 7, 2, 1; David Waters 2, 1, 1, 0; Michael Waters 9, 1, 1, 1 with 1 block; Austin Chmelik 4, 6, 2, 0; Matthew Schwartz 10, 1, 1, 1. Nathan Beckman and Justin Dempsey also both saw action in the game. Saturday at Kendrick, Summit played Kendrick to a virtual standstill in the first half, missing a layup in the final seconds, then seeing Kendrick drop in a 2-pointer at the buzzer for their 28-26 halftime lead. The “wheels fell off” during the second half however as the Tigers outscored Summit 17-6 in a disastrous third quarter, then continued to add to their lead with a 21-12 margin in the fourth for a final 66-44 win for Kendrick. Hardin with 17, Boyle with 11, Scott with 10 and Olson with 9 provided the bulk of the Kendrick scoring, while Summit scorers and rebounders were as follows: Wemhoff 0, 2 with 1 assist; Nuxoll 2, 3 with 4 assists before fouling out in the fourth; Stubbers 7, 6; Dempsey 0, 23; Chmelik 13, 6; David Waters, 11, 10; Michael Waters 7, 2 with 1 assists; Schwartz 2, 2 with 3 assists and Beckman 2, 0. Turnovers played a significant role in both defeats as Summit committed 22 against the Genesee press and another 22 in the game with Kendrick. The two losses leave the Patriots with a 2-3 record and 0-2 in league with league games against C.V. at Nezperce Thursday and Saturday at Deary.
