On December 5, 2023, the Junior Varsity Lady Pirates traveled down to Ro-Hawk Country to take on Randolph. The Mighty 7 turned into the Ferocious 6, as one player was pulled up for Varsity play. We again found ourselves playing another team that could suit 3 full teams. The girls started the game slowly, only scoring 3 points in the first period. Once the girls calmed down and got into a rhythm, they started to play with more confidence and better execution.
In the second half, these girls came out on fire making shots and tightening down on their defense. The Lady Pirates played with so much energy and effort that they started to pull away and won the game with a final score of 32-23.
Highlight stats:
- Genesis Martinez scored 17 points, 10 steals, and 4 rebounds.
- Sofia Stewart scored 6 points, 10 rebounds, and 1 block.
- Claire Canales had 3 points, 11 rebounds, and 3 blocks.
- Cayleigh Smith contributed 2 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 blocks.
- Jaylen Villarreal added 2 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 steals.
- K'Lynn Perez scored 2 points 4 steals, and 3 pass deflections.
I am super proud of our Ferocious 6! Everyone on the team contributed points.
