BY DANA BALASH HUBBARD—The Hubbard Lady Eagles basketball squad continued their winning ways as they posted two victories in action last week. Last Saturday the locals dumped Beaver Local 65-45, while on Monday they beat Struthers, 52-29, a game in which Cara Hendrik set a new all time school record for points in a career with 872. Hendrix broke the old mark set by Brenda McNicol who finished her high school career with 864. With the wins the Lady Eagles improved to 13-3 while the Beavers dropped 5-9 and the Wildcats to 8-9. Beaver Local proved to be tough opposition for the Lady Eagies in the early going as both squads were deadlocked at ten at the end of one period. The locals then captured the lead for good at the 2:10 mark when Cara Hendrix connected on a three point play putting Bert Gallaghers Lady Eagles up 20-17. At the end of the first 16 minutes of basketball the locals were on top 26- 23. Two quick baskets by Amy Madeline, who finished with a career high 23 points, pushed the lead out to seven points, 30-23, with 6:45 left in the period. The Lady Eagles led comfortably throughout the frame and led 44-35 at its conclusion. The final frame saw the locals outscore the Beavers 8-0 in a three minute span and extended their lead to 16 points, 57-41 with 3:22 left and coast to the victory.
