The Ballard girls basketball team hosted Newport last night but the team's shooting left the home crowd cold.

Newport gained a six-point-lead in the first quarter and Ballard played catch-up the rest of the first half.

The third quarter looked a lot more promising for the Beavers with Ballard outscoring Newport 12 to 2.

But Newport made a comeback in the final quarter surpassing Ballard by two points.

The final score was 39 for the Beavers, 41 for Newport.

Leading the Beavers in scoring was Nancy MacGeorge with 11 points, 13 rebounds, and one assist.
