In the 1st quarter the starters got off to a slow start. In the third quarter, the Chesterton coach got a technical for attempting to throw a rug at the referee. After being asked to stay in his box, the referee called a technical. The start of the fourth, both teams were exchanging baskets. In the final minutes of the game, the Lady Cavemen pulled off a
win 45 to 44. On Tuesday November 17th, the Lady Cavemen faced Washington. The game was a “thriller to watch!” a spectator commented as the game pushed ahead. The Cavemen had a
disappointing defeat against Washington last season and came back for revenge. The whole gym was fired up to see the potential outcome of the game. The Cavemen were up practically the whole game and went on to win 71 to 61. On Saturday November 20th, the Cavemen will host New Prairie. Go Lady Cavemen!
