Last night, both our Raven Girls and Boys Basketball teams lost to Olathe North on Senior Night. If you missed the games or the Senior Night festivities, check out the replays below.
Girls Game:
On Thursday February 14th, the Lady Ravens of Olathe Northwest hosted their bitter rival, the Olathe North Eagles, for senior night. Seniors Erika Boeh, Ashley Cass, Haley McCormick, and Sara Beth Gueldner were all honored for their basketball ability following their 54-51 loss to the Eagles. Early in the first quarter, North grabbed an early advantage with exceptional defense and a strong inside presence from McGinnis and Love. Despite Gueldner’s offensive struggles throughout, teammates like Liz Thomas, Riley Wade, and Mary Reiber stepped up to lead a comeback. At halftime, the Lady Ravens trailed 26-16, but began a surge in the 3rd and 4th quarter. With a few minutes left in the 4th, Northwest brought themselves within 3 points, but Gueldner, Reiber, and company could not get around the athletic Olathe North team. Although the Lady Ravens were defeated by North, Northwest is still in prime position to host sub-state the week of March 3rd through 9th.
