After the IHSA state tournament on Saturday, March 5, the Galena Girls Basketball team ended their season with a history making record of 32 wins and 4 losses. This year’s basketball season was immensely different for the Lady Pirates. They have had to overcome many challenges, but they continued to work together. At the beginning of the season, the team consisted of 9 JV players and 10 varsity players. As the season progressed, the program no longer had enough numbers to carry a JV team, but all of the players, JV and varsity, came together to form one of the strongest teams Galena High School has ever had.
