Storm vs. Masonic, part 2

New Life Storm 36 Masonic Red Devils 19

The New Life Storm avenged a loss to the Lady Red Devils of the Masonic Home with a convincing homecourt victory by 17 points. On the game's first possession Shelby blocked a shot by the Red Devils' center, who dominated the last meeting between the two teams with 24 points. That was one of 3 first half blocks by Shelby and set the tone for a strong Storm defensive effort that limited the Red Devils to only 7 first half points. On the offensive end, Hannah got off to a fast start, hitting 2 early 3-pointers and scoring 8 of the first 10 Storm points, as NLC jumped ahead 12-2. The Storm held a double-digit lead for most of the rest of the game. As in the previous game against East Wake, this was a good overall team effort, as this very young, inexperienced group starts to show some signs of gelling. Shelby led the team with 15 points and 16 rebounds.
