Wildcats Rally Past Trojans

ALPENA, MI - Allison DeRocher and Jade Schultz scored two quick baskets in the 4th quarter to take the lead for good as Alpena rallied past Traverse City Central, 44-39, on Friday night in their annual Pink Game.  The Trojans held the lead for most of the night, thanks in large part to Alpena shooting 8-for-25 from the free-throw line.  Alpena's struggles from the line and turnovers allowed the Trojans to led by eight midway through the third quarter.  Alpena then began to slowly chip away and trailed 34-32 entering the final quarter.  An 11-1 run in the fourth gave Alpena a 43-35 lead that they would never surrender.  DeRocher would finish with a team-high 15 and Schultz finished with 14.

Alpena (7-4, 3-2 BNC) sits alone in 2nd Place in the Big North Conference behind 5-0 Cadillac.  The Wildcats are at Petoskey on January 30.
