Girls basketballers triumph over Repton
Tuesday, November 15, 2011
A consummate team performance saw JESS run out 42-22 winners over arch-rivals Repton College on 15 November.
The victory was built on a committed and organised defence that executed their ‘trap’ strategy to great effect to nullify the threat of Repton’s exceptional power forward. The lynchpin of this defensive strategy was the tireless Trinity Ingram who dictated the pace of the game on offense and denied everything on D. Outstanding individual performances were also in evidence from Emilie Jones, Eva El Khourri, Tessa Van Veen and Lauren Roberts. The win means that JESS will qualify for the end of season play-offs and have the opportunity to avenge their early season defeat to JC. Kudos to Allanah Cope who made her first ever appearance for a JESS basketball team and to Aisha Lopez who broke into the side and made her first start of the season.
