Both Charger Teams Beat Sinclair !!

On January 11 the Edison Charger basketball teams pulled off 2 important wins at home. The Lady Chargers pulled off a victory over the Lady Tartans for the first time in 2 years. Sinclair Community College is one of Edison's big rivals in conference play because our two school are so close to each other. The Lady Chargers came out fast and before 7 minutes had gone off the clock they were up 15-4 over Sinclair. The Chargers settled down a little and the Tartans started to make it a ball game and at half Edison still led 36-29. After the half Edison came out and played good defense and held off the Tartans for the win. Haley Fannon knocked down some key free throws in the final minutes of the game to help secure the Edison win. Stacy Feathers also hit some big 3's in the corner to help maintain the lead through out the game.
