The Cowden-Herrick/Beecher City girls basketball team will be back in action Monday night after 6 days off and will try to stay perfect in the National Trail Conference as they host North Clay. The meeting will be the first this year between the 15-1 (4-0 in NTC) Bobcats and the 7-11 (1-3 in NTC) Cardinals. The Junior Varsity game will get underway at 6:00pm with a setup of two 10-minute halves being played and immediately following that game, former Coach Carolyn Wendte will be honored with a ceremony with the Varsity game getting underway after the ceremony. We will have the broadcast of the Varsity game on 107.1 FM WKRV at about 7:00pm.
Coach Carolyn Wendte’s career leading CHBC spanned almost three decades with more than half resulting in winning seasons, including three appearances at the IHSA 1A State Tournament. CHBC finished 4th in 2010 and 2014 and in 2012, were the State Runner-ups falling in the 1A Championship game to Freeport Aquin 61-51. Wendte retired from coaching following the COVID-shortened 2021 season.
