Storm VG @ Cary Academy

Cary Academy Chargers 66   New Life Storm 39

The Storm girls played valiantly, but fell to the Chargers of Cary Academy on their Homecoming night.  Despite playing short-handed without Shelby, who sat out with injuries, the Storm came out strong to start the game.  With great offensive execution, the Storm got inside for 5 layups against the much-taller Chargers, and Hannah and Emily knocked down open 3-pointers, and the score was 18-16 Chargers at the end of the quarter.  Cary Academy, the only private school girls team ranked in the N&O top 15, made some defensive adjustments in the 2nd quarter, got transition points off turnovers, used their size advantage inside, and pulled away from the Storm, led by Liberty-signee Mickayla Sanders.   Hannah Grace led the Storm with 9 points and 7 rebounds.  Sarah chipped in 8 points and 6 rebounds, while Emily had 6 assists.
