Team recaps<br />

Boys Basketball: The boys’ basketball team traveled to Cascade last Friday. After a very hotly contested<br />

first half which saw the Plugs trail by two, the second half turned out differently as <strong>Speedway</strong> gave up twelve<br />

offensive rebounds and were outscored from the free throw line by fourteen in falling by a score of 78-58.<br />

Justin Brent led the Plugs with fifteen points and snatched seven rebounds. Senior Dorian Outlaw threw in<br />

twelve points, followed by Austin Anglea with nine points, five rebounds, three assists, and three steals, and<br />

Anthony Jones chipped in nine points. A fine defensive effort by Casey Anderson held Cascade’s leading<br />

scorer to only two field goals, but it was not enough. The Plugs will be on the road this Friday versus<br />

Covenant Christian.<br />

Girls Basketball: The girls basketball team took on the Cascade Cadets this past Saturday at Morris Pollard<br />

gymnasium. Cascade jumped out to an early lead but the Plugs battled back. Down only 3 after the first<br />

quarter, the ladies went back and forth, trading baskets and playing no defense. At the half <strong>Speedway</strong> trailed<br />

by 11. The third quarter saw <strong>Speedway</strong> cut the deficit to 6 but no closer. Ultimately the size of Cascade wore<br />

down the Sparkplugs as they fell 81-66 to Cascade. The Plugs were led by senior JoJo Daghe with 22 points,<br />

while junior Bailey Smith added 19. Junior Tiffani Adkins cleaned the glass with 11 rebounds. The Sparkplugs<br />

will see Cascade again in the first round of sectionals.<br />

Wrestling: This past weekend the wrestling team placed 8th out of 13 teams at the Indianapolis<br />

Washington sectional. The following individuals placed for the Sparkplugs: 6th place finish goes to Nick<br />
