Steamboat girls basketball steamrolls through the weekend
Steamboat Springs girls basketball traveled to Roaring Fork over the weekend for a tournament to open its season.
On Friday, Dec. 2, the Sailors went up against Prospect Ridge Academy. The girls tallied 18 first-quarter points to give them an early 11-point lead. The team held on to its advantage and won 41-35 with senior Belize Berry scoring 12 points.
The Sailors continued that momentum with a win over tournament host Roaring Fork 30-27 on Saturday, Dec. 3. Steamboat held a one-point lead at the half, but the Sailors were able to hold onto that lead for the win and the weekend sweep.
Steamboat will look to continue its strong start to the season with its next match coming Thursday, Dec. 8, against Loveland.
