The girls had every expectation of winning their matchup with DeKalb as they had already beaten the Tigers once this year. However, Friday night's matchup was one of those nights in which everything was going in and out for Northeast. They didn't do themselves any favors at the free throw line in the first half, going three for 12 in that frame. It was a good defensive struggle until the last 33 seconds of the third quarter; nobody was able to take a lead of more than two possessions. Finally, Northeast had a meltdown, giving up 11 points in the last 33 seconds to go from being down two to down 13 at 32-19. They could not make up the difference in the fourth quarter as they fell 45-30.
Dallis Coffelt led the scoring with 12 points for Northeast. Jill Spire had seven and one 3-pointer. Talina Nelson had four, Brianna Riley and Taylor Coffelt had three each, and Vanessa Riley had one.
The boys were too stagnant on offense and could not buy a board on defense against DeKalb as they lost 61-29 to the Tigers. Max Giesken did all he could for Northeast, trying to provide a presence in the middle with three blocks in the first period. But DeKalb steadily pulled away, leading 12-6 after one quarter and 29-14 at the half. Garet Jackson added two blocks in the half. The Tigers used an 18 point third quarter to establish a 22-point lead, 47-25 after three and triggered the running clock in the fourth.
Max Giesken had 15 to lead Northeast. Dylan Mildfeldt followed with five; Garet Jackson, Eli Scroggie, and Andrew Freemyer all had three. Rowdy West took a charge on defense.
