Man, what an atmosphere in Ramseur tonight! Great turnout from the Black Knight faithful. Ladies first......
Desta Trammell put on a show. I knew she would be good. I didn't think she would be THAT good. If she wasn't knocking down threes, she was taking her woman off the dribble and hitting a Black Knight on the inside for an easy bucket. And yes, she hit all her free throws. Matter of fact, I'm not sure any of them touched the rim. I'm willing to bet she spends at least two hours every day shooting the basketball. ER simply couldn't figure her out. Color me very impressed.
People will more than likely remember Trammell's performance. Sadly, most people will probably not remember Kensley Phillips's performance. Phillips was tremendous tonight. She played tough, tough defense on ER's guards and pulled down a ton of defensive rebounds. Her and Liz Carpenter really got after it on the boards.
Tough game for ER. Cats had a rough night shooting (and rebounding) the basketball. They couldn't quite figure out the Robbinsville defense. I do want to say that I'm very surprised that ER never broke out the press. That's worked well for them all year. Oh well.....great, great season Lady Cats!! To get to the third round, not too shabby.
