Recovery wins battle of Forts (01/21/04)

Local Roundup

Joscie Kaup has found her shot.

The Fort Recovery senior notched her second straight contest of 20-plus points as the Indian girls basketball team handed the Fort Loramie Redskins just their second loss Tuesday, 56-43.

Kaup led the Tribe to a 47 percent shooting night, hitting 7-of-12 field goal attempts as she scored 24 points. It was perhaps the most consistent contest for the Indians this year as they outscored Fort Loramie in every quarter.

She was also a perfect 8-for-8 from the foul line as she followed up her 23-point effort in a 50-45 loss to the Division IV No. 3 Marion Local Flyers last week. She also grabbed seven rebounds and dished out four assists.

Fort Recovery (8-6) has won six of its last seven games, with its only loss of the past month coming against Marion Local.

Jenn Stahl also shot well, finishing 5-of-8 as she scored 12 points.

Krystal Rammel had a team-high eight rebounds, and Tiff Gaerke added seven. Ciera Rammel notched five assists, and Holly Stein had four assists and four steals.

Fort Loramie (10-2) — which took its only other loss against Jackson Center — finished just 31 percent from the field. It was 16th in the most recent AP poll voting and third in the area as rated by the Dayton Daily News.

No Redskin player reached double figures, with Mallory Albers topping out at nine points. Abby Ernst and Courtney Reed each scored eight points. Reed added four rebounds, three steals and two assists.

Fort Recovery shot just 30 percent in the junior varsity game as it fell to an unbeaten Fort Loramie squad 44-36.

The Indians got eight points apiece from Kelsie Will and Julie Link. Will had five rebounds, and Link added four steals.

Sara Fortkamp added five assists and four steals.

Fort Loramie (12-0) shot 50 percent, with Tara Olberding going 4-of-7 and scoring 13 points.

Hayley Barhorst had 11 points and seven rebounds, and Stephanie Dress added eight boards.

The Indians will visit Delphos St. Johns Thursday at 6 p.m.

Tribe loses two

Fort Recovery’s junior high girls basketball teams took on Delphos St. Johns Tuesday and came away with a pair of losses. The eighth grade team dropped a 47-35 decision, and the seventh grade squad lost 35-28.

The eighth grade Indians fell behind 14-7 after one quarter and couldn’t make a comeback. They fell to 5-3 with the defeat.

Jill Pottkotter paced Fort Recovery with 11 points, and Beth May added seven. Ashley Grube had six points and four rebounds, and Val Fortkamp chipped in five points and seven boards.

The seventh grade team managed just six first-half points as it slipped to 6-2. Joanna Snyder powered the Tribe with 14 points and 13 rebounds, and Anne Koesters added 10 boards.
