Kee girls basketball team suffers season’s first loss in home battle with Waukon, bounces back with pair of strong wins in UIC play

The Kee girls basketball team played through its busiest week of competition thus far with three games played in five nights, putting two of those games in the win column to suffer its first loss of this young season. That initial defeat came in a close intra-county battle at home with Class 3A Waukon by just a 55-53 final margin Monday, December 9, but the Lady Hawks bounced back with decisive wins in Upper Iowa Conference play for the rest of the week, 64-24 at home over Postville Tuesday, December 10 followed by a 62-29 triumph at West Central Friday, December 13.

The Kee girls were next scheduled to host Clayton Ridge Tuesday, December 17 and Central Elkader Friday, December 20 prior to the holiday break. They will then return to the court in the new year to play at North Fayette Valley Friday, January 3 before playing at MFL/MarMac Tuesday, January 7 and then hosting Decorah and South Winneshiek back-to-back nights, Thursday, January 9 and Friday, January 10.
