Only close in the beginning, as any contest is, the WHS Varsity Lady Crusaders pulled away early from their host at El Dorado HS Friday evening, ending the night with a 4th qtr running clock, Wellington hustled their way to the 62-31 victory. 

The first half took about 2 1/2 days to complete. Aggressive defense by WHS (23 steals on the night) and perhaps lack of experience and ball control for the young El Dorado Wildcats, resulted in 27 foul calls during the first 16 minutes of play. It was WHISTLE-O-RAMA first half for sure.

Coach Adams utilized most if not all of the bench by games' end. At one point (before halftime), there were 3 freshmen, 1 soph and 1 senior on the floor leading the charge for the Lady Crusaders.
