ZIMMERMAN: Fillies' streak on the line

Monday night's win over an improved Silver Lake squad is just the prologue for what lies ahead this week and beyond for the Sutton girls basketball team.

Tonight, the Class C-2 No. 10 Fillies' six-game winning streak will be put to the test when they travel to take on Class C-1 No. 5 Fillmore Central (11-1).

While one game in the regular season doesn't make or break much, this game will be important for the girls' psyche. Sutton (9-2) has beat only two teams that currently have winning records — one of which came Monday against Silver Lake. A win tonight proves that the team has taken the next step.

"We're excited to see where we're at," first-year head coach Monica Smith said this morning. "We have to get over the hump and get a victory tonight."
