The Juneau-Douglas High School girls team fell to Marysville Getchell High School on Friday in the finale of the Capital City Classic. Marysville, visiting from Washington, took the Crimson Bears down 33-28.<\/p>\n

After trailing nearly the whole game, JDHS almost put together a seven-point rally when junior post Cassie Dzinich scored a putback off a rebounded free throw to draw the score within three with 43 seconds to go.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Chargers looked to run the clock down on the ensuing possession, forcing the Crimson Bears to foul in the double bonus. Leading scorer Gabby Grandbois split her free throws to give the Chargers a two-possession lead with just 10 seconds left.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was weird, because our coach was yelling at us, \u2018slow it down, you don\u2019t need to get a shot now,\u2019\u201d said Grandbois, who is used to playing with a shot clock. \u201cWe really had to work hard to slow things down and keep control of the ball.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe knew that they were a good team and a shooting team, so we tried to keep their three pointers down. We got out on their shooters and pressured them a lot.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Grandbois led all scorers with 14, followed by her sister, Maddy Grandbois with 10.<\/span><\/p>\n

JDHS was led by Caitlyn Pusich with eight, Dzinich with seven and Kendyl Carson with six.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think we just weren\u2019t being smart with the ball, I know I wasn\u2019t,\u201d Carson said. \u201cWe grew up playing together from HoopTime, and we played well together when we were little. I think we just have to rebuild that trust. \u2026 We weren\u2019t listening as good as we should have.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Down 22-12 a half, Dzinich\u2019s offensive rebounding and Carson\u2019s ball handling in the backcourt kept the home team in the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe turned the ball over 27 times, that was the difference in the game,\u201d JDHS coach Lesslie Knight said. \u201cI think that\u2019s just nerves and we have to figure out how to get past those nerves.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
