Breaking Recordsby THS Media Kane Mobley
The Truman Girls basketball team went up against the girls from Wyandotte, in a tournament hosted by Truman High School. The Truman Patriots came right out of the gate scoring. Right from the start, the game was lopsided, and it stayed that way.
“We came in like it was a regular game, but I didn’t expect this,” sophomore Brodi Byrd said. “I kind of was just watching her.” At the half, Truman was up 63-9. The Patriots were led by sophomore Erin Davis, who had scored 25 points in the first two quarters of the game. Davis was lighting it up from the three-point line. |
Truman Escapes Double-Overtime Thrillerby THS Media Kane Mobley
The Truman Patriots hosted a Friday night game against the Bulldogs from Grandview High School, in a game that could be summed up as an instant classic.
Grandview jumped out to an early lead, and ended up being up four points as the first quarter came to a close, with a score of 19-15. This lead wouldn’t last much longer, as the Patriots came alive. Truman would score 23 points in the 2nd quarter, and go up six points before the break. Truman led Grandview 38-32 at halftime. |
Rival on the Hardwoodby THS Media Bri Savidge
Two teams trotted out onto the court, both with the same mission. The student sections from both schools roared to life as the players took the court. It was the annual I-Town showdown, the rivalry game between foes Truman and Chrisman. After warmups, the National Anthem, and player introductions, it was showtime. Truman senior guard Derek Sykes stared down Chrisman senior forward Ronnie Cravens as both lined up in the center circle for the tip off.
