Copper Cougars Basketball Cougars win 16-15

Copper Cougars Boys Basketball began this week!  Their first game of the season was against Mark Twain Badgers.  The boys played at the Mark Twain Elementary school.  The Cougars managed to pull out a win in the final minutes with a shot by Chase Collins.  Copper won the game 16-15. 
 
Thursdays game was at the Copperopolis Elementary School against Jenny Lind Elementary.  Although Copper lead the way through most of the game, it was tied up with less then 2 minutes in the fourth quarter.  A great 2 point shot by Johnny Miramontes in the final minute of the game pushed Copper back into the lead.  Johnny also scored a free point shot with less the 30 seconds left to help push Copper in a 22-19 win!  Scoring in the game was Chase Collins 6 pts, Johnny Miramontes 5 pts, Bryson Kelly 4 pts, and Joseph Miramontes, Max Meyer, & Duncan Welch all with 2 pts each!  Terrific games boys! 
 
Upcoming games are Tuesday, January 3rd, at Copperpolis Elementart at 3:30 against Linden.  And Thursday, January 5th at Pioneer Elementary school at 3:30pm.
