Jan. 7 Shawano 61, Green Bay East 22 It was another record-breaking night for Shawano’s Leah Nordin in the Hawks’ 61-22 win over Green Bay East. The 6-2 junior sank a short jumper from the left side of the lane with 9:16 left in the first half at Green Bay East to become Shawano’s all-time leading basketball scorer, boys or girls. Last month, she broke the record for all-time scoring by a female. Nordin now has 1,343 career points. The old record was 1,329 points, set by John Cantwell, who played for Shawano from 1955-58. Nordin finished with 18 points – 13 of them in the first half. Trinity Popelka added 14 points for the Hawks (9-3 overall, 4-1 conference). Seven other girls also scored.
