Minooka girls finish 1-3 at Oswego

OSWEGO — After starting the Oswego Holiday Tournament with two tough opponents in Neuqua Valley and Batavia, the Minooka Indians girls basketball team looked to finish 2-2 overall in the tournament as it took on Rosary Saturday. Unfortunately, the Indians let a 10-point third quarter lead slip away as they lost to the Royals 42-39.

Sloppy play was killer all day for Minooka, as it committed 23 turnovers in the contest. Seven of these came in the fourth quarter, where Rosary outscored the Indians 17-8.

"I thought we lost our composure," Minooka coach Ray Liberatore said. "I think in the first half we did good breaking their press. And even though we were still winning there late, we started to lose our confidence."

I'm in favor of anything that will help improve school finances
I will support it if it helps to lower my property taxes
I oppose it because I don't believe it will impact property taxes and I will just pay twice
I'm against any additional taxes
I have not heard enough yet to form an opinion
