Senior Night - Storm vs. Surry

Surry Runnin' Patriots 45 NLC Storm 38

For the second time this season, the New Life Storm led the Surry Runnin Patriots for a half before Surry stepped up to take control of the game in the second half and came away with the win. NLC dominated the early part of the game. They came out with a lot of intensity, forcing Surry turnovers and controlling the defensive boards to limit Surry to one shot. New Life led 13-3 after one quarter and eventually pulled out to a 12-point lead at 17-5. Then the Storm hit a lull, allowing Surry to recover and get their feet under them. The Storm didn't score during the last half of the 2nd quarter, but Surry ran off the last 7 points of the half to cut the halftime lead to 17-12 and give them the momentum heading into the break. The Runnin' Patriots grabbed the lead in the 3rd quarter, outscoring the Storm 19-6. Though the Storm fought hard to the end, they were unable to stop Surry and the defending state champions took the game. Hannah Grace and Anna led the way for the Storm with 13 and 11 points respectively, and Anna also pulled down 8 rebounds.

This was the last home game for Rebecca, Arianna, Daryl, Anna, and Courtney, and the 5 seniors were honored in a ceremony at halftime. They are a special group of young women and we wish them God's blessings as they prepare to move on to life after high school!
