COOPERSTOWN – After impressing their home crowd in the first round of sectionals, the Sherburne-Earlville Lady Marauders felt confident, taking on Cooperstown. Cooperstown, who had defeated S-E twice in the regular season, had the upper-hand as they came away with the 57-47 victory in overtime. S-E ended the challenging 2022-2023 season with a 10-12 record.

S-E did give the Hawkeyes a battle throughout the contest as they rallied from a small deficit to tie the game to send it into overtime at 42 a piece. Unfortunately, they could not stop the will power of Cooperstown’s Dani Seamon, who crushed competition with 32 points, including 13 in overtime.

S-E was proud of several ladies who stepped up to help them get to overtime. Hannah Todd-Rogers led the Marauders with 13 points and her one-of-two free throws helped tie the game with 17 seconds in regulation. She also had 13 rebounds in the contest. Trinity Thornton finished her final game with a double-double as well with 10 points and 13 rebounds.
