80th Year No. 1 817-246-2473 7820 Wyatt Drive, Fort Worth, Texas 76108 suburban-newspapers.com January 2, 2020 The Western Hills girls basketball team did not do as well as hoped in the Weatherford Tournament this past weekend, going 1-3 in tournament com- petition. “We were a little rusty, and we were missing some players due to injuries,” coach David Kubicsek said. Imani Freeman, Nakaya Cooper, Carmen Rosales and Amaria Cooper led the Lady Cougars in scoring at the tournament. Western Hills plays Castleberry on Jan. 3, and Kubicsek said the Lady Cougars need this one. “I expect it to be a big game for us,” Kubicsek said. “It is a game we need to win if we want a chance at playoffs. I’m hoping we have a great week of preparation for the game.” Over at Benbrook, the Lady Cats have been hit by the flu virus, and coach Leta Lofton said some of her younger players have had to step up. “It has been a rough few days back from the Christmas holiday,” Lofton said. “But we were able to salvage the FWC tournament by moving a couple of capable freshmen up to replace those out sick.” Lofton said Quiarra Bolton, Miah Overton, and Madison Sorrell are to be commended for leading the team in the absence of Benbrook's two captains, and freshmen Macaela Creger, Valery King, and Emily Siddig “found them- selves filling some very big shoes on the varsity level.” Benbrook plays Dunbar on Jan. 3, and Lofton said her team will have its hands full. “We will go into the Lake Worth and Dunbar game with those just return- ing from the flu, but we still have our goals set and our minds set on being successful in district play,” Lofton said. “We will put our best foot forward.” For the Benbrook boys, an 80-34 victory over Venus was a nice win just before Christmas, and coach Blake Mendez said he could not have asked for much more from his team. “We played really well against Venus,” Mendez said. “We were aggres- sive on defense, which led to some easy buckets in transition. Everyone got involved and it was a good outing for us.” Mendez said he had a strong individual performance as well. “Jordan Butler played great offensively,” Mendez said. “He was getting to the rim and finishing, which is what you want.” Benbrook will play Dunbar on Friday, and Mendez said his team will be in for a challenge. “We know Dunbar is extremely athletic, and they can score,” Mendez said. “We’re going to have to have a great defensive outing and take care of the ball.” From the Sports Desk with John English BMHS and WHHS Basketball and Wrestling Report (continued on page 5) From the City of Benbrook Waste Collection Rates Increase 14 Cents in January The City contracts with Republic Services to collect residential trash, recycling, brush and bulk materials.
