The Malta M-ettes have anticipated playing the Wolf Point Lady Wolves all season, because the Wolves were supposed to be a tough opponent in 2B basketball. Instead of a close game, Malta pounded the Lady Wolves 55-21 last Friday in Malta. By the time the first quarter was over, Malta had already established a 26-2 lead.

With a couple of losses last weekend, the Malta Mustangs are experiencing a few growing pains and a lack of leadership. The team dropped games to tough opponents last weekend. They lost 52-42 to Wolf Point Friday and 53-46 to Havre. Both were home games. "We had a total lack of leadership out there," Coach David Costin told the PCN. "Wolf Point made a good run. We didn't step up to it. We just didn't have a lot of direction from things on the floor." In their loss to Wolf Point, Malta looked a...
