The Greene County High School girls’ basketball team went 5-16 this season. Coach Dean Lyons’ team lost its final eight games and his squad faced a tough schedule. Three of the losses were to two teams that will be playing this week inside Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines at the 2018 Girls’ State Tournament. North Polk (Alleman) from the Heart of Iowa Activities Conference is in the Class 3A field, and non-conference opponent Boone qualified in 4A.

Coach Lyons talked about the schedule, which featured three HOIAC teams ranked in the top 15. “There were times were would have liked to have played a little easier schedule, but it is what it is. We aren’t using a tough schedule as an excuse. We just didn’t execute as well as we needed to throughout the course of the season.”
