Newton Lady Eagles fall to Lawrenceville in Regionals

Newton Lady Eagles versus Lawrenceville Lady Indians

Comments from Head Coach Brad Harris: I am so proud of the season the girls put together this season. We struggled during the first half tonight and could not climb out of the hole. The team played hard in the second half and fought until the end. This team accomplished so much this year. They won 20 games, won the Dieterich Holiday tournament, 2nd at the Bob Kerans tournament  and consolation champion in the LIC tourney. It did not end the way they would have liked but this one game does not define their whole season.”
