Undefeated is not only a status the Camp Verde Middle School’s girls basketball team will keep into 2015, it’s only a technicality for the Clarkdale-Jerome School boys after they were knocked off by CVMS in a tournament Saturday, Dec. 13.
The six-point win was the last for the Cowboys before winter break, though, as Clarkdale outscored CVMS 18-9 in the third quarter to avenge its six-point loss and remain undefeated in the Verde Valley League, 40-34, Tuesday, Dec. 16.
Matching the Mingus Rams’ 7-0 record in league play is the Cowboys girls team, as forward Darian Loring poured in 10 points and fellow eighth-grader Hope Ontiveros added two three-pointers Dec. 16 to double up Clarkdale, 26-13.
