Co-captains shine on Fontbonne Senior Night
Traditionally, Fontbonne’s Senior Night is the biggest game of the regular season, when families get a chance to see their daughters play in their last scheduled home game. In addition to a farewell ceremony, Fontbonne supporters were treated to one of the most competitive senior games in recent years. For this celebrated game, the 4-9 Bonnies hosted the 7-4 first-place North Division Maria Regina Tigers from Hartsdale.
Aaniya Telford scored 10 of her game-high 25 points in the first quarter to give the Bonnies a slim 11-10 lead. In the second quarter the Tigers kept pace with the Bonnies as Fontbonne finished the half with a 20-18 lead.
At half-time, coach Steve Oliver said goodbye to his seven 2022 graduating seniors, which included co-captains Telford and Eleni Sipp along with Kristen Hennessy, Alison Kienzle, Sophie Lopez, Mikayla McLaren and Paige O’Neil.
