Ella Otten wasn't messing around on Thursday, scoring 18 points. The match was her third straight with 15 or more points. While that hot streak is impressive, perhaps more impressive is what she's done for her team: she's scored a third or more of Dakota Valley's points for three straight games. For the year, Otten has averaged 18 points, 1.4 steals, and 2.7 assists per contest.
Dakota Valley's road trip will continue as they head out to face Lakota Tech at 2:00 p.m. on January 27th. Sadly, Otten's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped Dakota Valley's three-game streak of wins on the road. With the streak snapped, Otten and Dakota Valley surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Saturday's match.
