There must have been a full moon last night

Wow what a crazy rivalry game between Apex and Athens last night. All in the name of raising money for the Kay Yow/WBCA cancer fund. There were a ton of upsets in the area last night. Broughton beat Wakefield, Enloe lost to Sanderson and Wake Forest defeated Milbrook. Middle Creek lost to Fuquay....We survived because of sure will and determination.

Our girls won a gritty game where injuries and foul trouble forced us to play some people in positions that are not used to being in. When it came right down to the end of the game, our seniors took over and we pulled out a nail biter 54-51. In the process of all of that Keisha Gatling had one of her best night offensively scoring a career high 26 point, grabbing 6 board, dishing out 6 assists (career high) and blocking 6 shots.

Rachel Collins made a layup from an inbound pass from Lainey Childrey with less than a minute to go to give us a 3 point lead. We held on to complete the victory.

This senior class is 6-3 vs. Apex and 91-19 overall record including 57-7 Tri-9 record during this four year period.
