Ledes from the Land of Enchantment

St. Michael’s girls hoops team falls 44-33 to Pojoaque | Sports

Pojoaque Valley 44, St. Michael’s 33

What happened: At the Ben Luján Classic in Pojoaque, many appointments were turned inside out, and the Lady Horsemen switched from the Friday game at 9:45 am against Mesa Vista to the night drink at 8:15 pm against the host Elkettes. The changes seemed to put them off as they only had four points in the first quarter and 10 points in the half as Pojoaque built a 17-10 lead. The margin grew to 31-22 before finishing fourth.

“We took a lot of good shots but we just didn’t take them,” said St. Michael’s head coach Sonya Ruiz.

Top player: Ceciliana Ruiz led the Lady Horsemen with 10 points while Jacqueline Gorman added six points.

What’s next: St. Michael (3-4) will play against Socorro for the consolation title of the Green Bracket on Saturday at 11:30 a.m. Pojoaque (4-4) will play for the Green title at 6:30 p.m. in Kirtland Central
