Girls notch RRC win in Round Lake

By John RittenhouseThe Hills-Beaver Creek girls recorded their first basketball win of 2004 in Round Lake Friday.A double-double performance by senior Erin Boeve helped the Patriots improve their Red Rock Conference record to 3-4 with a 52-40 victory over Sioux Valley-Round Lake-Brewster.Boeve, who had 19 points and 12 rebounds in the game, inched closer to an impressive milestone.By collecting eight more caroms, Boeve will reach the 1,000-rebound plateau for her career. Boeve will go for her 1,000th-rebound when the 6-5 Patriots host Comfrey tonight, or when they travel to Mountain Lake Tuesday.H-BC needed everything Boeve and the Patriots could generate to beat the Raiders Friday.SV-RL-B sported a 10-9 edge after eight minutes of play before H-BC moved in front 28-24 at halftime.The Patriots proceeded to outscore SV-RL-B by four points (12-8) in the third and fourth quarters to win by 12."It was a pretty tight game the whole way," said H-BC coach Tom Goehle. "We shot the ball very well. On the disappointing side, we did not protect the basketball very well, and we didn’t play well defensively. It was nice to get a win, but there still are some things we need to work on."Cassi Tilstra turned in a 10-point, five-steal, four-assist effort for H-BC. Amanda Olson added seven rebounds to the winning cause.Box scoreRozeboom 1 0 2-4 4, Bush 1 0 0-0 2, Sandstede 1 1 0-0 5, Tilstra 5 0 0-4 10, Hoyme 0 0 0-0 0, Boeve 6 0 7-10 19, Olson 3 0 0-0 6, Mulder 2 0 0-3 4, Fransman 0 0 2-2 2.Team statisticsH-BC: 20 of 38 field goals (52 percent), 11 of 23 free throws (48 percent), 28 rebounds, 22 turnovers.SV-RL-B: 17 of 32 field goals (53 percent), six of 19 free throws (32 percent), 26 rebounds, 22 turnovers.
