Chickasaw girls give Cedar Falls heck of a battle

Forget the final margin, New Hampton girls basketball coach Chad Pemble had every reason to be proud of his Chickasaws Saturday night.
Yes, Cedar Falls came away with a 66-50 non-conference victory, but New Hampton gave the Class 5A sixth-ranked Tigers fits, especially in the first half.
“I loved the effort our girls gave, and I loved the way they didn’t back down,” New Hampton coach Pemble said. “That’s a really good team over there. When you only have one loss with the schedule they play, that’s saying something.”
Yet, New Hampton came to play, despite being a decided underdog.
Maddi Moorman had eight points in the first quarter  to help New Hampton build a 15-13 lead after eight minutes of play.
