HENDERSON – The New Richland-Ellendale-Geneva girls’ basketball season scored at will in its opening game.
Despite nine minutes of running time and coach John Schultz ordering his team not to shoot at the end of the game, the Panthers romped to a 98-29 victory over Le Sueur-Henderson in Henderson Nov. 27.
The Panthers, coming off a 32-1 season last winter, had defeated LSH 82-25 in 2011.
“Our kids really pushed the ball and cashed in on a lot of transition points,” said Schultz. “I was very happy with our effort tonight.”
