YES SUHR! DRAGONS WINBrunswick girls rally to knock off No. 1 Greely, 54-51, for first regional title
... “They are amazing kids,” said Brunswick coach Sam Farrell. “The defense picked it up and we made some big shots. Madeline (Suhr) was awesome. Brooke Barter had a heck of a fourth quarter. They just play so well together.”
“We came back on defense, and that turned into offensive points,” said Suhr, who was named the Class A South Regional MVP. “Our press break was a lot stronger, and that is a game-changer.”
“Brunswick made some shots,” said Greely coach Todd Flaherty after his Rangers finished 19-2. “We had them going a little bit faster than (Brunswick) wanted to go. They just kept making shots and we didn’t. We didn’t capitalize on things we were doing defensively.”
