The La Jolla girls basketball team, with only six players suited up, fought visiting Montgomery pretty evenly until senior guard Jenna Harmeyer had to sit out after committing her third foul with five minutes left in the second quarter, and dropped a 50-38 decision Thursday, Dec. 11.
New varsity coach Johnnie Horne started returning juniors Satori Roberson and Paulina Cardenas, and newcomers freshman Rebecca Saul, a freshman, and Melisa Conroy, a senior, alongside Harmeyer, who handled much of the ballhandling against the Aztecs' full-court press.
Conroy was somewhat humorous when she replied to a question about having only one "s" in the spelling of her first name: "I'm from Bulgaria. I'm not American," putting a lot of emphasis on the word "American". She seemed to bring a bit of spunk to her role in the game.
