Lady Trojans defeat Butler County

The Colby Community College women's basketball team (8-10, 3-1) defeated Butler County 65-48 Sunday at the Community Building. After a sluggish first half in which the Lady Trojans trailed by nine points, shot just 28% from the field and committed 10 turnovers, the Lady Trojans responded immediately to start the second half.

The Lady Trojans began the second half with a 7-0 run and took command of the game early in the second half. Their defense was the catalyst, forcing the Lady Grizzlies into 10 second half turnovers as well as tough shots.

Lauren Fortin led the Lady Trojans with 24 points, 19 in the second half. Fortin was 10-for-19 from the field and was 3-for-7 from three-point range. Sandra Sormaz added 18 points and 11 rebounds, Whitney Archer had 10 points and 8 rebounds, and Katie Spresser had 10 rebounds.
