Rosary 55, Geneva 39: In the first two games of the Oswego Holiday Classic, Jordan Rettig, a sophomore on the Rosary basketball team, has put on an impressive display.
In the first game, a win against Batavia, she tallied 19 points. In the second game Monday, in Rosary's 55-39 win over Geneva, she scored a game-high 22 points and grabbed 11 rebounds.
"We thought we could use her strength inside," Rosary coach Dave Beebe said. "She's playing really well. When we get her the ball, she is hard to stop."
"We really worked the ball well," Rettig added. "I just tried to power it up and finish my layups. For the most part, we were hitting our outside shots also. I think we worked really well together today."
Rettig did a little damage in each quarter against Geneva, which only led once -- in the first quarter 8-7 after a bucket from Olivia Laster at the 2:08 mark.
From there, Rosary (10-4) went on a 10-0 run to end the first and begin the second quarter. The Royals used that run, maintained the lead and was earned a 25-16 advantage at the break.
Geneva, however, went on a 9-0 run at the start of the third to get back in the game. After the run was complete, the Vikings slashed the Royals' lead to 27-26 after a pair of free throws from Lauren Wicinski with 4:30 left in the quarter.
The closest the Vikings (10-2) could come to the Royals was 32-30 with less than a minute left in the third after another free throw from Wicinski.
