For the second consecutive week, the Kee girls basketball team only got to play two of the three game on its schedule during this past week, and also for the second consecutive week the Lady Hawks were able to put one of those two games in the win column. The split of Kee’s two games this past week included a 63-40 loss at home to Wapsie Valley Monday, December 19 before the Hawks bounced back the very next night for a 38-23 win at home over West Central Tuesday, December, marking two consecutive Upper Iowa Conference victories for the Lady Hawks.

A Thursday, December 22 non-conference game at New Hampton was called off due to winter weather until a date yet to be determined. The Lady Hawks entered the holiday break with a 2-5 season record that includes a 2-3 mark in Upper Iowa Conference play.

The Kee girls will return to action after the holidays to host Waukon Tuesday, January 3 before playing at Turkey Valley Friday, January 6 and then hosting North Fayette Valley Saturday, January 7 for an afternoon match-up at home against North Fayette Valley. The Lady Hawks will then play at MFL/MarMac Tuesday, January 10 before hosting Central Elkader Friday, January 13.
