The 8th grade Lady Dawgs trailed Bethpage for four periods before erupting in the fifth period for a hard fought 27-26 victory. The charge was led by the ever improving Kaitlin Schamberger who scored a career high 16 points including six at crunch time. Her lightning quick steals set up the girls, as the Bulldog pressure was too much for the golden Eagles to handle. Trailing by one with 58 tics on the clock, Schamberger connected on a 15-foot foul line jumper to take the lead. On the ensuing inbound play, Lisa LoFaso stole the ball and was fouled. Stepping to the line with a chance to ice the game, LoFaso calmly sank both shots to seal the win. LoFaso finished with four, Alyssa Fleming had four and Stephanie Farag added two. Gina Lippert had one on a foul shot. Angela Barea, Jessica Galella, Danielle Baglivo and Lisa Provenzano displayed great defensive pressure. This was a total team effort that they should all be proud of.

Adding rebounds and intimidating defense for the Bulldogs were Jackie Augner, Lori Brennan, Samantha Burger, Megan Carlson, Nicole Carrazana, Nathaly Estrada, Michelle McGurk and Jessica Ostrowski.

Lori Brennan, Samantha Burger, Megan Carlson, Gina Dziuba, Korin Jordan, Michelle McGurk, Heather McCarthy and Jessica Ostrowski all played an excellent game and set up their team for scoring position.
