Falcons win Season Opener 59-46 at Maple Grove

Posted by Antiwan Easley on Nov 27 2007 at 04:00PM PST

The first game of the season is always an interesting game as you have teams that are on the floor for the first time with new talent, new energy and a bundle of nervousness and anxiousness brewing from a long off-season.  The Falcons took the court ready to battle the Crimson and looking to get the season off on the right foot. 

Behind the 19 points, 6 steals of Nicole Dooher and the 12 point, 18 rebound effort of Amanda Viehauser the Falcons flew to victory in game one of an exciting season.  The game was a little sloppy as both teams were plagued with many touch fouls but the Falcons hit clutch free-throws, highlighted by Viehausers 8 for 8 night from the line.  The Loobecks, Kristi and Steph, showed good work in the paint and Alyssa Marshner had a solid 9 points, 6 assist night.

Nikki Brown and Alli Hoefer also gave the Falcons some great pop off the bench.

In the JV game the Falcons received a great team effort from the solid 6 they have.  They pulled out a 50-47 OT victory.

Next up for the Falcons will be Hill Murray in the home opener on Tomorrow. This game is Minnesota Lynx night so come on out and meet the Lynx and enjoy some exciting Falcon basketball.
