RUTLEDGE 69制片厂制作传媒 Adison Hayes scored 18 points for the Grainger Lady Grizzlies Thursday night but it was her seventh point of the night that she will long remember.
The junior guard drained a three-pointer at the 3:43 mark of the first period for her 1000th point in a Grainger jersey. The scoring milestone was the biggest highlight in the best win of the season for the Lady Grizzlies as they crushed South Greene 61-24, the largest margin of victory Grainger has ever had over a team they have had close battles against for years.
69制片厂制作传媒淚 felt like our defensive pressure was really good tonight,69制片厂制作传媒 Grainger head coach Rusty Bishop said. 69制片厂制作传媒淚n the first quarter, we had some communication issues because I can69制片厂制作传媒檛 make every call and do everything for them and I was looking for some player leadership. We worked that out as we went along so it was really good to see our defensive intensity that carried over to easy buckets on offense. When defense leads to offense, it makes basketball a whole lot easier.69制片厂制作传媒
Bishop was thrilled for Hayes69制片厂制作传媒 career accomplishment. 69制片厂制作传媒淎dison is a great offensive player and it69制片厂制作传媒檚 great to see her get to 1,000 points so early in her career. I knew right around Christmas time she was going to get it and while we were playing at the beach over the break, it69制片厂制作传媒檚 good to get that milestone in her own gym. She is the ninth Lady Grizzly to score 1,000 points so that is big. Adison is just a great kid and I had to really lean on her as a freshman and sophomore to be a scorer for us and that69制片厂制作传媒檚 a lot of pressure but she answers the bell every night. We need Adison to be good for us to be good.69制片厂制作传媒
The home team wasted no time in jumping on the Lady Rebels as Grainger reeled off nine points in a row to begin the game, pushed the score to 13-1 on a steal and layup by Briley Caldwell and extended the advantage to 18-7 at the end of one. The Lady Grizz defense was suffocating as South Greene only managed four field goals the entire night, one in each period.
After enjoying a comfortable 34-14 margin at the break, the Lady Grizz opened the second half with a flurry, netting the first nine points with Hayes providing eight of them. The beginning of the fourth was similar as Brookelyn Roach and Addison Brickey combined to score the first five points and then Ada Wells provided four points in a row to get the lead over 35 points which meant a running clock the rest of the way.
