The Indians’ freshman girls basketball team trampled the Marion Local Flyers 30-11 Monday. The boys team had less success, dropping a 54-26 decision.
The girls team shut out Marion Local in the first period, and led 18-5 at halftime. It limited the Flyers to a pair of third-quarter points as it cruised to the win.
Abby Niekamp paced the Indians with eight points, and Lauren Wenning added six points and four rebounds. Sandra Sudhoff and Shelby Knapke also scored six points apiece.

The eighth grade Eagles led by three points at the end of the first quarter and at halftime. However, they fell behind by two, scoring just four points in the third period.
