Paton-Churdan opened the 2012-13 high school girls’ basketball season with a 40-18 victory in Churdan over non-conference opponent Madrid on Nov. 16. The victory was spurred by the P-C defense, which didn’t allow a point until more than nine minutes had been played. The Rockets led 8-0 after one quarter and 19-8 at the half.

Freshman Carleigh (Carly) Paup (Pop) scored 12 points and senior Brianne (Bree-ann) Gerwulf added 10 for the Rockets. Lynn Rigby had five points to lead the Tigers. The game was the season opener for both squads and it also marked the Paton-Churdan coaching debut for Chris Petersen.
