Area coaches, players win IGCA all-star game
By Kristi Nixon
CEDAR RAPIDS — Riceville head coach Darcy Fair and assistant Jill Beran, along with three area players, helped lead the Class 1A white team to a 68-59 victory over the Class 1A grey team on Sunday, April 2.
Riceville’s Joy Beran and Madison Mauer, along with St. Ansgar’s Madison Hillman all contributed to a come-from-behind victory on the campus of Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids during the annual Larry Niemeyer senior all-star game.
The white team trailed nearly all of the first half before mounting a rally in the second half. The white team got their first lead on a basket by Hillman, and, after the grey team momentarily nabbed the lead back, another Hillman basket gave the white team the lead for good at 57-55 with 5 minutes, 16 seconds left.
