Lady Broncos gain two big wins

By Sandy Anderberg

The Lady Broncos spent little time running the gamut on Highland Park and Memphis to close out their regular season last week and secure a spot in post-season play.

The Lady Broncos clobbered the Lady Hornets at 70-6 and breezed by the Lady Cyclones at 74-14.

Neither game was ever contested by their opponents as they were able to execute their offense at will while able to make stops and cause turnovers. They were able to capitalize on those turnovers and missed shots to closed out both games.

Highland Park never gave the ladies any competition on either end of the court and struggled against the Lady Broncos’ offensive attack. The Lady Bronco strong defense frustrated the Lady Hornets as they were not able to climb into double digits until the third quarter of play.

Presley Smith ended with 15 points and Kenidee Hayes and Kate Shaw put in 12 apiece. Laken Smith and Millie McAnear each had eight, Gracie Ellis put in seven, and Madi Benson added six.

Four players finished in double figures in the game against Memphis with P. Smith leading the way with 19 points. G. Ellis, Hayes, and L. Smith turned in 13 points each and Shaw and McAnear helped with eight and four points respectively. The ladies dropped in nine big shots from the arc and made three of four bonus shots in the game.

The Lady Broncos will face Vega Monday at 6:30 at Amarillo High School for the bi-district title. Follow us at Facebook.com/TheEnterprise for updates.
