POSEN — Tenacious defense and fast paced offense has been the recipe for recent success for the Posen girls basketball team and the trends continue on Wednesday as the Vikings blew out Hale by a final score of 57-13.

Posen got off to a fast start and never looked back.

“Our press worked good tonight when we were in it and our half court defense was good,” Posen coach Karl Momrik said. “We scored a lot of points off of our press and overall it was a good team effort.”

Elena Kalbitzer scored a game high 19 points to lead the Vikings and Riley Krajniak finished with 10 points.

Posen improved to 7-1 overall and 4-1 in North Star League play.

The Vikings return to their home floor on Friday when they welcome NSL foe Hillman.
