Mitchell took the five point per quarter baton and hers came after Glenvar pulled even at 33 – 33.
” I thought we had a strong finish to the game we where able to limit their two leading scorers to 9 points,” said Mayo. ” Every player scored.In the third quarter when we made multipleΒ passes and found a open petson. We where able to extend the lead. We did a good job at the end of the game running our delay game and working on burning large chunks of time. We then made some very good defensive plays. Hopefully we will continue to get better as the season plays out.”
