Sommer twins sizzle against Prairie

Wed - 08 Jan Written by Tom Fruehling

It may have been bitter cold outside the Prairie gymnasium Tuesday night, but it was Sommer time inside.

Twin sisters Kristie and Katie Sommer combined for 37 points to lead the Linn-Mar girls to an easy 57-36 romp over the short-handed Hawks.

Prairie was without influenza-bitten playmaker and point producer Madison Dellamuth, and it showed.

“We were completely out-of-sync on both ends of the floor,” said Hawks Coach Steve Doser. “We were looking for some leadership, but we didn't see what we wanted. We looked lost.”

The dynamic Sommer girls, meanwhile, seemed right at home.
