Momentum killer there for Hendo. Lacer drilled a 3 as the clock expired.

Kaeli Ross (17 pts) has found the form she displayed in last year's region final. She may need to keep it up for Russell to pull this off, unless Steele can put together a clean second half while still being effective defensively.

 

Dueling Devils doing double duty.

Thank you for the updates @GOREDDEVILS and @DevilMayCare.

Wurth (12 pts) and Thomas (8) have looked good for Hendo, but Russell did a better job on Thomas in the second quarter.

The Lady Colonels gave Russell fits early with their press, and had no issues with Russell's. Once the Devils settled down, they made a game of it. I feel a great second half coming.

Not the start Mandy Layne was looking for.

Shaelyn Steele finally gets her name in the score book.

Risley drains her second 3 in as many attempts, then Wurth capitalizes on a turnover to push the lead back to 12.
