As a group of family members, including sister Jolie (between players) – a 2023-24 CHS All-Stater now playing for the University of Central Missouri, watching in the background, sophomore Lydia Bonderer of the 2024-25 Chillicothe High School basketball Lady Hornets scores a third-quarter basket during the team’s 59-27 loss to Iowa’s Waukee Northwest Lady Wolves during last Saturday night’s play in the North Central Missouri College Foundation’s 20th-annual “High School Holiday Hoops” shootout at Trenton. The night before in a close home loss to unbeaten Centralia, the younger Bonderer had “double-doubled” with 13 rebounds and 11 points while also sharing the team lead with four assists in the best performance of her career to date.
