Brady Caswell awaiting the pass
Read moreThe Brownfield Lady Cubs were looking to get back on track Friday night against the Muleshoe Lady Mules but were unable to as they lost 62-41. Muleshoe came out of the gates looking good as they played great defensively enforcing a side defense cutting the court into a third, and the Lady Cubs struggled to adjust to it as turnovers were an issue in the quarter. Part of the issue was the Lady Cubs started the game trying to feed Jaelyn Molina inside the paint, but Muleshoe would not allow her to get a touch as they relentlessly jumped in the passing lanes. Muleshoe would capitalize on the turnovers in the first and use it to knock down 3 3’s in the first to get the offense rolling. The Lady Cubs best offense was out in transition when Muleshoe could not get their side defense initiated which is how Brownfield accounted for their 8 first quarter points. By the end of the first quarter the score was 13-8 in favor of Muleshoe. To start the second Muleshoe would go on a 9-3 run courtesy of good defense and finding ways to break down Brownfields defense. The Lady Cubs did have opportunities to get points on the board as they shot 12 free throws in the quarter but only cashed in on two of them. Going into the locker room Muleshoe led 30-14. In the third quarter Muleshoe remained aggressive on defense and never really allowed Brownfield to get anything going. Muleshoe used these turnovers to their advantage once more as they put up 20 points just in the third frame. At the end of the third quarter, they led 50-22. Brownfield never gave up as they continued to play hard, but the defense of Muleshoe proved to be too much as ultimately Brownfield would fall 62-42. Brownfield was led in scoring Alli Coffey who had 10, Kaylynn Fininen had 7, and Kayleigh Saldana and Jaelyn Molina both had 5. The Lady Cubs will be back in action at home on Tuesday night as they begin the second half of district play against Denver City. TipOff is set for 6:15 PM, a livestream of the game can be found on brownfieldcubs.com

The Brownfield Lady Cubs dropped their second district game of the season losing to the Littlefield Lady Wildcats 56-38. Once again the Lady Cubs were without their leader Rhianna Miranda who’s still nursing an injury. Jaelyn Molina jump started the offense as she made a layup and was sent to the free throw line for a chance for a three point play and she would capitalize. Unfortunately those 3 points would be all the Lady Cubs would have for a while as Littlefield would force a couple of turnovers to get easy buckets and began to utilize full court pressure that bothered the Lady Cubs as they would have 10 first quarter turnovers that carried the Lady Cats an 11-0 run at one point. The second half of the first quarter would be a different story as the Lady Cubs were able to make some adjustments and get some stops on the defensive side while getting some baskets. Brownfield was able to outscore Littlefield 7-4 to end the first but would ultimately be trailing 18-10 going to the second frame. The story would feel the exact same as the first quarter with Littlefield coming out on a 8-2 run to start before Amery Pauda would end the run. Once again the Lady Cubs would outscore the Lady Cats to end the quarter but went into the locker room trailing 31-22. The halftime break did no good for the Lady Cub offense as they did not hit their first field goal of the half till 3 minutes in when Lucy Guzman nailed a much needed jumper. Both teams exchanged rather long possessions in the 3 rd quarter which shortened the game. But going into the 4 th Brownfield was still in it only trailing 41-31. Unfortunately Littlefield was able to put a lot of pressure forcing Brownfield into a bunch of turnovers and resulted in a 9-0 run that virtually shut the door for the Lady Cubs. They would not stop fighting as they tried to dig into the deficit but on this night Littlefield took advantage of your turnovers and would go on to win the ballgame 56-38. The Brownfield Lady Cubs will be back in action Friday night as they welcome in Muleshoe and look to get back on track in district, tip-off is set for 6:00 PM.
