Whiting was not able to break out of their rough patch on Tuesday as the team picked up their sixth straight loss dating back to last season. They took a 46-32 bruising from the DeMotte Christian Knights. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Oilers of the 52-43 defeat they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in November of 2023.
When it comes to explaining why Whiting lost, don't look at Victoria Velez. Despite the final result, she went 6 for 15 en route to 18 points plus seven rebounds. What's more, Velez also posted a 50% three-point shooting accuracy, which is the highest she's posted since back in November of 2023.
Whiting's loss dropped their record down to 0-3.
Whiting will hit the road for the first time this season to take on Boone Grove at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday. DeMotte Christian has already played their next contest, a 61-15 win against Heritage Christian on the 15th.
