The Marshalltown Bobcat Girls Basketball team is off to a good start this season even with some of the injuries to start the year. Sophomore Guard Amairra Johnson has yet to play this year and Junior Guard Kinsley Bowie has been battling an injured ankle.
That is head coach Brian Murphy, who says winter break came at the right time for the team. Turnovers has been the biggest thorn in this teams side, and many of them happen when the game speeds up as the other team implements a press.
Johnson will still be out tonight, but Bowie should see some action again. The girls will be traveling to Waterloo East for a game tonight. Tip off for them is scheduled for 6:15.
The Bobcat boys basketball team will also travel to Waterloo tonight for a game, it is set to start after the girls game. KFJB-TV will air the boys game and the end of the girls game. Pregame is set to start at 7pm with Voice of the Bobcats Brandon Lewis. Tune in on KFJB-TV’s YouTube and Facebook pages
