Speaker 2 (00:04):
So a Yukon make their exhibition debut to this twenty
five to twenty six season and come away with an
eighty four to sixty seven win over the Eagles of
Boston College. As we bring you the highlights, as we
take a look back to see how this game all
came together, just like a beautiful kitchen from Dean Cabinetry
and Bolton, built to impress from start to finish. And
it was the Eagles that got off to the fast
six to two start thanks to a couple of threes

(00:26):
before Yukon made the next eleven two nifty blocks or
actually two nifty back door plays Sarah Strong on one
and an Asy fun on the other put the Yukon
Huskies up for stay.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
It to Sarah Strong, left Elbo file on extended back
door fund the catching lamp, and there's an early time
of the game brought to you by die Bank Community
Banking Lives here. We've had a couple of those and
we'll take that as our early choice, and the Huskies
take a ten six lead with eight straight points. It
was thirteen to seven at the first media timeout. The
Eagles hipped the way. They went on a ten to

(01:01):
five spurt, got to within eighteen sixteen. Then Yukon closed
out the first with eight straight led twenty six sixteen,
the last four points of that first quarter coming from
the transfer from Brooklyn Sarah Williams. Trout picked up by Williams,
bounce pass inside, they work it down low and asy
fudd with the steel was a telegraph pass pass.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Williams running the floor, lays it in and again the
size runs the floor well and good hands of two.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
I made it twenty six sixteen. Sarah Strong was just
smooth as silk today. Seven of her first nine, both
inside and that.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Mid range game.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Here's Arnold zips it the strong quick foul line shot good.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
That's there's Strong just seems to be open and I
don't take this shot.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Ashland Shade made a three ball at thirty nine twenty
four and then both teams basically struggled down the direct.
Yukon made one of their last ten BC, one of
their last nine, the lone Yukon field goal. The young
lady from Ecuador, the freshman Blanca Kenes. Here's Canonez fakes
goes right get to buy. Trout lays it in a

(02:14):
good job. There caught that ball around the foul line
extended and it's just about squaring up.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Square it up, saw the basket and the lean to
the Hoop Pro Bowl in Italy has paid off.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
Huskies led at the break forty three p thirty, Sarah
Strung and Sarah Williams leading the way with fifteen and ten, respectively,
but Asy Fun took over in the third quarter three
threes early to put the Huskies back up by twenty
fifty one to thirty five. Five corner three good from
the right Heckel quick transition three for the Huskies that

(02:49):
they got so good at the end of last season.
Fifteen for Fud in the third of the twenty seven
that Yukon scored, and then the final hoop of quarter
number three, a buzzer beater from Sarah Williams. Here's Fun
off the screen goes right to left, gives to Williams
with six trying to get at the Fud, looks back

(03:10):
door and nope, Fakes takes it herself.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
All the way to the ram and scores.

Speaker 2 (03:16):

she gives you kind of twenty one point lead through
three And as we mentioned earlier, that is our Monico
