Championship basketball game Satuday vs. Garden Plain at Hutchinson. Adversity is going to come, but you just have to ride it out and good things will happen. I think our kids really believed in each other and believed they could find ways to win games.” A three-point basket by senior Marlissa Jordan gave the Lady Panthers their first lead in the championship game, 5-4, at the 5:05 mark of the first quarter. “Garden Plain’s Taylor Joplin can shoot the ball anywhere on the floor,” Porter said. “She was their linchpin, and our first goal was to limit her touches around the perimeter. But they have a number of role players on their team.” The Lady Owls quickly re- gained that lead, however, and were up 13-9 after the first quarter, primarily due an 11-5 rebounding edge early in the game. A basket by RV senior Bella Thompson brought the score to 14-13 and free throws by junior Mary Broxterman also helped keep the game close in the sec- ond quarter. With one minute to go in the second quarter, Jordan’s second trey of the game put Royal Val- ley ahead 20-16 and that was the score at halftime. At that point in the game, the Lady Owls were just 1 of 9 from There were lots of Royal Valley fans on hand Saturday at Hutchinson for the state title game. The photo above shows part of the big crowd. three-point range while Royal Valley was 2 of 7. All of the game statistics were pretty even at halftime, with both teams committing six turn- overs and Royal Valley with 12 rebounds to Garden Plain’s 13. Also at that point in the game, the Lady Owls were 3 of 4 at the free throw line while the Lady Panthers were 2 of 2. “When they came out, they really attacked us through the high post, and we had to make a couple of adjustments,” Porter said. The Lady Owls started the second half by hitting a three- pointer. RV’s Broxterman coun- tered by drawing a foul and hit- ting two free throws at the 5:50 mark. With another score by Brox- terman, RV took a 26-21 lead over Garden Plain with 3:40 left in the third quarter. “Mary had a heck of a tour- nament. She grew so much and gained a lot of confidence,” Por- ter said. “I think she played her best game all year.” A layup by RV sophomore Kenzie Ogden and teammate Jordan’s third trey of the game put the Lady Panthers ahead 33- 26 at the end of the third quar- Royal Valley junior Mary Broxterman goes up for a left-handed layup in the state title game.

The fourth quarter of the game was the deciding one as every- thing seemed to go Garden Plain’s way, especially in the way of fouls and free throws. After two minutes of play, the score was tied 33-33. The Lady Owls went on a 13- 0 scoring spree over the Lady Panthers that didn’t stop until junior Kiikto Thomas scored a basket with 3:26 left in the game to make the score Garden Plain 39, Royal Valley 35. “We told them that Garden Plain was going to go on a run,” Porter said. “We thought we could kill some of the mo- mentum with our timeouts and then settle back in.
