CHIMACUM — The Cowboys struggled after top scorers Mechelle Nisbet and Lauren Thacker were limited early in the game due to foul trouble.

“We hung in for a while, but our poor shooting put too much pressure on the defense and we lost contact in the third quarter,” Chimacum coach Trevor Huntingford said of Tuesday’s game.

“I was pleased with the underclassmen in the second quarter, and filling in with the foul trouble.

“We ran the better part of the second quarter with three freshman, a sophomore and a junior and they held up defensively and kept us in reach going into halftime.”

Thacker and Kiersten Snyder tied for team-high scoring for the Cowboys with eight points each.

Chimacum hosts Cedar Park Christian on Friday.
